So this is my first post here, so hi! I plan on building a computer, obviously, and I have a list of parts that id like to see what people have to think about. This will be my first build. 

I plan on staying around a thousand but I don't want any compromises power wise.

 

So here's the links... 

CPU

CPU cooler

Mother board

RAM

Storage

GPU I'll be using two of these

And my case

And power supply

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/zNK7YJ/evga-power-supply-100b10500kr

 

And I know I didn't post everything I'll need. But like what wires would I need. I also plan on playing some games not any huge games that I'll be playing a lot. I'll probably be using it for school work too like documents and drawing in Photoshop. Also what's a good mouse and keyboard for under fifty dollars each? I don't want to spend a ton but I don't want a junk keyboard and mouse I'll be using for detailed drawings and coding.

Oh... I didn't forget about OS or monitor. I was planning on over clocking and AMD is supposedly easier to so I assumed AMD would be a better choice. Lol now I feel dumb. Could you point me in the right direction then? Thanks!

I'd go for a PNY CS1311. They're a bit better than the SP550 iirc. Both are around the same price.

eh, few bucks more for slightly better performance, i'd let him decide if he's willing to pay for it but i'd pick the sp550 for the price.

So do I need any additional cables? I would imagine everything comes with all that's needed...? And any mouse and keyboard recommendations?
