Changed your mobo. you can go with another if you'd like. open the pcpartpicker page, edit build, clear out the mobo, on the left click on "atx", "z97", "2 way sli capable", sort by price. Any of those will suffice, this is just the board that sticks to your budget the most. The psu will be enough as well( you draw 492w with sli)
