I want to make sure everything is good before I purchase this. I realize I can lower this price a lot and get the same performance. I am looking to play games on ultra settings with no lag at all. ( Games like Battlefield 3 and 4, COD, etc...)
So, here's the link to the parts

I know the monitor is way overpriced, so suggest a new one for me with anything else that should be changed. Thanks in advance.
I'm also wondering if I should get Raedon or Geforce
If you need a big gaming rig then i suggest going for the Coolermaster HAF X gaming case, i believe its a little cheaper than the one you have currently and it also has loads of fan bays to really keep the insides cool (i'm using it and its amazing).
as someone mentioned before if your gunne plug out for 2x GTX670's i'd just buy the one nVidia GTX690 as it is like 4GB and will more than handle ANYTHING on this planet. or wait for the TITAN version which will rock even more.
As for monitors, i'd perhaps look at buying yourself a nice TV to use as a monitor, they tend to be cheaper and have the same sort of specs too, i'm using an LG 32" 3D TV as my monitor and cost me like $350.
Also for your power supply, have a look at how many Rails the supply has, the more rails the more power it'll be able to supply, for example:
With your current spec you perhaps need say 800w of power (plucked out the air so don't assume this figure is correct, check each parts needs) if your 800w supply has only 1 rail it'll supply 800w through one socket meaning it'll power each part through one rail (this means if one part uses more wattage it'll take it from the other parts meaning they may not run as smoothly).
Now if your supply has 2 rails or more it'll supply 800w through 2 rails (so 800x2 = 1600w total) meaning your parts can be assigned a rail and always have enough power (so CPU and mother board can be on one rail while your 2 graphics cards can be on the other).
I'm also new to PC building so i don't know if what i just said is accurate but thats some information i got from someone so you may need to clarify that.
You set-up is very similar to mine actually. i'll post mine up in a new thread if you want to have a look.
