It's good, but I'd lose the ridiculously overpriced platinums. 

Get a Gigabyte G1 980 / MSI TF / EVGA SSC 

Swap the RM1000w for an EVGA G2 750w 

Get a 4790k 

And don't spend $30 on thermal paste...

Yes, everything is compatible but unless you plan to 3 way SLI, I would get a cheaper power supply.

1. Why is this in Troubleshooting?

Go for a 4790K, it overclocks betterYou don't need $30 thermal paste, the stock one is fineYou don't need 2400MHz RAM. 1866MHz is fine and even that's overkill.Put those SSDs in RAIDThe 1000W PSU is way overkill. All you need is a decent 500W PSU.You don't really need an optical drive (unless burning DVDs as part of content production)
