Thanks for reading this post. I'm building my first gaming rig and ordering the parts today.

This is the build so far and I've pretty much settled on everything but the motherboard and ram (mostly because of a lack of knowledge). 

 

 
CPU: Intel Core i7-5820K 3.3GHz 6-Core Processor  ($319.99 @ Micro Center) 
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14 SE2011 CPU Cooler  ($71.79 @ OutletPC) 
Motherboard: Asus X99-A ATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard  ($223.99 @ SuperBiiz) 
Case: Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case  ($99.99 @ Newegg) 
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Home OEM (64-bit)  ($84.98 @ OutletPC) 
Wireless Network Adapter: TP-Link TL-WDN4800 802.11a/b/g/n PCI-Express x1 Wi-Fi Adapter  ($34.00 @ SuperBiiz) 
Monitor: Dell S2716DG 144Hz 27.0" Monitor  ($599.99 @ Amazon)

Additional Information:
 
The budget is $2500 USD total and I'd like to run triple A games on this build.
I'll probably go for 2 way sli in the future (upgradeability is important).
As it is my first build, I am a noob so if you suggest something please tell me what advantages/disadvantages there are.
If it matters, this system will be facing heavy usage (6-10 hours a day) - It's also for work
