bump any ideas?

I would get this ssd
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147163
This mobo(the motheboard you have selected won't fit in the case)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130646
I don't trust 560ti sli, mine didn't work, I would get two 7850's
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129230
go with this psu, that other one is way overkill, you wouldn't need that unless you had two 480's
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817553007
I don't think that dvd drive is necessary
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827100067
I would get a hard drive also
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840
if you want a full tower I would get this
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811517006
I would get these monitors instead
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236103
I would get this keyboard, I don't see why you need a better one
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823162014
Also if this is a gaming rig I would get an i5 3570k
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116504
Also consider if you really need ultimate
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/compare
that compares the three versions. Sorry if you feel like I tore your build apart but this computer will game a little better, and is FAR cheaper.
Also this ram looks about that same
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104315
And also consider if you think an air cooler would make more sense. This build should be at least $400 cheaper, but I wasn't keeping track.

I already have everything built, and yes I was moving up from a 480, was just looking at doing some upgrades. And the IV Extreme wont fit in the Cosmos II? Its an EATX board which the cosmos says it will support

 

[lt_dan_zsu]

Well If it says it will then, yes. I just saw atx case and thought it wouldn't. Well if you have everything already, what are you looking for specifically?

 

[ritdawg13]

Didnt' know if it be worth it to go to something like GTX 670/680 and try to sell off the 560 TI, worth it to try and go to 16 or 32 ram, I do play video games ie. battlefield 3 torchlight, swtor, but I am also adobe certified and use it for my adobe collection as well

 

[lt_dan_zsu]

I would just stay with two 560tis for now, you will get 300 max for the two of them.
