Lots of power. I think 3 970 are a better value than 2 980. This is very similar to my build. The monitor is fantastic. Mine is overclocked to 110 and its great. ISP 1440 and no dead pixels. You can raid the hard drives so if you have one failure you can keep on working. I think keyboard mouse is personal, but i put in place holders. I like wireless, because I can't tell a difference between wired and wireless. I have 2 970's OC and my build destroys anything I throw at it. The build should be fairly quiet and cool.
