Here is an updated version.  Tell me what you think.  Also I put the case that I already have.

Cheaper to get 1 2tb hdd than 2 1tb hdds unless you want to raid.

It's good though few things, Here I am, telling you not to get the Razer peripherals. A lot of people on here will say not to, though have yet to use them. Yes, they are bad but they are not horrible. Get like a SteelSeries Rival or Mionix Castor for the mouse and a keyboard with CherryMX Reds. Also please get at least a 1440p screen, even if it is just 60hz. The 980Tis are never going to see their pull potential and especially on 1080p, the 6600k will bottleneck them. Either get a single 27inch 1440p IPS Panel for around $300 or get a single 980Ti.

What about if I put two 980s instead?

Do you just want 2 GPUs? Give me a minute and what is your max budget? I'll try and fit 2x 980tis with a 1440p monitor and without sacrificing performance.

Though the Classified is better for that price, the 850w PSU is more than enough. Also you seem to not notice those 1080p monitors

Keep in mind, that you can not game on the two screens as if they were one, because then you would have your crosshair will be covered by bezels. I mean, maybe you want that, but I wouldn't. No judging though ;D

I know that but I want to have two for when I use my console I can still use my PC.
