Hi everyone this is my first post.
I am just about ready to order my first 'Gaming PC' and have done alot of research about the topic and almost certain all of the parts i have choosen are compatible and wont cause any bottlenecking:
ASRock Extreme 3 Gen 3
Intel Core i5 2500K
Thermaltake Frio
EVGA GTX 680 in dual SLI
Corsair Vengeance 8 Gb(2x4Gb) DDR3 1600 MHz
Seagate Barracuda 1Tb 7200RPM HDD
LG Blu Ray optical drive with 3D playback
Antec HCG-900 ATX12V v2.3 80 bronze SLI certified

Are all these parts compatible and is the PSU enough? please help have to order soon.

So i am confused, I need a bigger supply or will that one do? And reason i am using 2 GTX 680's i because i am getting an Asus VG236H Monitor which does 120Hz 3D and from what i have read using 3D lower your performance so i want to do this with as little performance drop as possible.

And power supply is enough?
Also the monitor i am getting is an Asus VG236H which doesnt have any headpone jacks and i plan on using my xbox 360 with it but how will i get sound? At the back of the monitor is 1 dual link DVI, 1 hdmi and 1 component input.

Update to system:
As with the release of Ivy bridge i am upgrading the CPU to an i5 3570K as it is a mere $20 more and the motherboard to an ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 also an extra $40.
Is it worth the upgrade? and i am assuming every thing is still compatible, yes?
Is a single GTX 680 enough to play games in 3D?
