I have built a few computers now but alwasy suck when it comes to building one for myself. Please let me know what you think of this build. Brutal honesty would be great.
This is what i was thinking about. I looked at the March 2012 system builder for the $2600 machine and loved that case but wasnt too happy that xfire isnt really an option. I want the option.

I like the Ultra case and Ultra power supply because of the lifetime warranty. Not many are doing that anymore, nice to have incase i lose a screw or stuff breaks. Im down for anything. I think the total of this build is

What do you guys think? 4 vid cards sounds fun to mess with, have yet to do something like this especially on something i own. I usually grab a beast of a vid card so i dont need a second hehe. I want to keep this as quiet as possible and still be beast. I am taking all suggestions. Im not sure if this build is goign to be too quiet lol.
