    Storage: That's exactly what I was going to do, although I do now see the downsides of doing so, I'll likely keep one of the 2TB drives for mass storage, and replace the other one with a 1TB drive for solely game storage and such.
     
    Ram: I don't know why I chose the RAM I did, I feel like I liked the look of it better, but the Patriot RAM really is better overall.
     
    Motherboard: I've switched to a Gigabyte board, which I hear are like the best of the best boards around.
     
    Case: With the removal of the second 2TB drive, I've been able to fit the Enthoo Pro into my budget, which is pretty cool.
     
    But overall, my modified system build:

    I'm liking this quite a bit, I may switch out the Keyboard and mouse, but otherwise it looks solid, as with the other post I replied to, I do have something I designed myself as a reference that I'd show you if you'd like.

    I made one that's cheaper, and for my purposes, much better.

    I'll definitely keep it in consideration, but I think I'll stick with my 980 for now, as I can always add another 980 in SLI when my computer starts running down. That or i'll just wait for the 390/390x when it comes out.
