So you're comfortable with spending 7000 dollars on this for program/animation design and gaming?
Don't think the dual GPU's are necessary and the CPU is also way over the top.

Well if it's what you wanna do, go ahead! 
Looks all good if you have the storage from your current computer.

I really think you should wait for a dual 2011-3 board that is compatible with V4 Xeon E5, then drop 2 2687Ws in, for a total of 24 cores / 48 threads and a higher clock speed (3.0 GHz) and most importantly, about $600 cheaper than a single 2699V4

Also don't get Founder Edition, look for custom 1080s
