Empty cart...

Well,  it won't perform too well,  but at least it's cheap!

Have a look at http://directcanada.com . They are a sister-site to NCIX, but some of their prices are nuts. I've used both sites for ears and never had any negative experiences. But yes, Canadacomputing si a reputable company, too.

Nice.

But A couple thing to consider:

I just recently compared Those Samsung SSD driver, and after much reading, the I chose the Pro over the EVO series. I got the 256gb.
Are you sure 750w is sufficient? it appears to have 60+ amp on the 12v, but since Evga has so many variants, I'm not sure when those cards will devour. Evga is a fine choice, though.
Last, I always recommend a single beefy card, over SLI and Crossfire. For many reasons. I think a single 680 will cost about the same, or spend a bit more for a 780.

And a CPU cooler, of course.

if you get a 'smaller' CPU, you can save almost 100 bucks with the 4670k. It's pretty much the same chip, but without Hyperthreading (virtual cores) They are good for stuff like encoding, but I've noticed little, of any difference, with games and general performance. Plus HT makes your CPU run hotter. I have it on my 2700k but I leave it off unless I'm going to encode large videos or run other process-heavy editors.

i would also suggest getting multiple hdd rather than one big one in-case it fails you still have other to fallback on with the multiple taking your board are enough sata connections.

for the powersupply look at the coolermaster v850, that what i got and the price was the best i could find for a 850watt and its getting a lot of good reviews

as for the hdd i meant don't put a single 3tb in but two 1.5tb or even just two 1tb drives for now.

The h100i is  an excellent  cooler,  but it has trouble fitting in some cases.  Search both models together and you'll get info about it. The slightly smaller siste cooler does well too.
