750w seems a bit much even for crossfire.

I would take a EVGA Supernova 650 G2, better quality.

 

For CPU, im going to recommend the i5, because clockspeed often have a bigger impact in gaming than hyperthreading.

In the future I plan on putting another RX 480 in the system. What do you think? http://pcpartpicker.com/list/bCgcHN

I think this is a solid build. For gaming in 1080p that is.

Well im just assuming it since he plans on running crossfire, listed components marketed towards gamers and the fact he didnt state something else.

I'm fairly certain if you want to save some money you can get a cheaper MOBO and case. Probably saving you in total around $50 

 

and yes like the other guy said overkill psu wattage for your build.
