What kind of dollars are you using?

Is a copy of Windows or any peripherals needed?

850w psu for SLI in future

You can switch the 980 for Titan X or future 980 Ti/390x

 

This computer is a hybrid productivity/gaming rig. You can shave down cost by switching to 4790k/4690k & lga1150 mobo, 16gb RAM, lower capacity SSD

U.S. Dollars just computer no windows or peripherals and micro for small form factor looking at corsair air 240 case

How's this look? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/n99gxr

The 295x2 is also a similar performing option: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-video-card-r9295x8qfa

No point getting 32GB ram or 2011-3 just for gaming. An oc'ed 4790k would be better and more ram than necessary gives no benefit.
