Thanks for the reply vanthus just one question really is the ASUS motherboard any good? just heard a few things here and there about ASUS not being so good but that may be other components other than motherboards im not too sure just thought id ask anyway really though i do think you wouldnt of put it in there for no reason at all if it wasnt all that really haha

The ASUS motherboards are quality components as are Gigabyte,I selected the ASUS Z97-A as it is SLi and XFIRE capable and you mentioned about future proofing,if you don't intend on doing that you could change to the Gigabyte Z97-HD3 motherboard and just upgrade to a more powerful single card in future which is why I have selected a higher PSU than you require,to allow for upgrades/additions.
if you are planning on SLI in future though you will need an even more powerful PSU (1000W for two 780 Ti's)
