x2 Corsair Dominator Platinum 16 GB (32GB)

 

Samsung 2.5 inch 250 GB 850 EVO Solid State Drive

Seems good overall and compatible, but there isn't much storage. By the end of this year there will be a ton of new hardware released. For example, new Nvidia and AMD GPUs. Your choices will probably change alot

I don't know if you want it for aesthetic reasons or something, but I'll bet your MOBO comes with an SLi bridge if you don't want to waste $30.  Also if that sleeved cable kit is like $200 you can get all the cables that will show(6pin,8pin,24pin) much cheaper.

IF U WANT, it's better to get a x99 mobo, take 5820k/5930k and get a gtx 980 ti, cause 1) 6 cores > 4 cores 2) there are some problems w/ sli. google is your friend. 3) in sli: 4 gb vram + 4 gb vram DOESN'T EQUAL 8 gb vram. gtx 980 ti has 6 gb vram 4) i'd wait to see what will pascal do, so choose ur gpu then because of DirectX 12

The MOBO has an SLi bridge included, but it doesn't really look that nice (at least on my mobo and the other ones I've seen).

Also you're better off with one 980ti instead of 2 980s in my opinion, especially since VRAM doesn't stack in SLi.
