Don't go EVGA either, go Gigabyte for your GTX 980s. If this is a gaming rig, go 4790K, ASUS Maximus VII Formula or Z97 Deluxe, some DDR3 2400/2666 RAM, 2 240/250/256GB SSDs and a WD Black 3TB mass storage drive. Razer peripherals are crap too, get a nice Corsair/Ducky/Das Keyboard keyboard and a Logitech/Corsair mouse. The 750D is crap for airflow, I have one and it's horrible.

also go for more than 1 144hz monitor as that with 2 wy sli is way to overpowered so tearing will be an issue

Yeah, try getting 3 VG248QEs or XL2420Zs or at least a single ASUS ROG Swift PG278Q, or even wait for the BenQ XL2420G, the G-Sync version of the XL2420Z.
