I need to know if these parts are compatible, and how good this machine will be. I am really looking for a computer that will have very little game with any game that I play, and one that I can play games in high-highest quality. I also need very good multitasking, and a computer that can handle not only games but also movies. I'm starting my career in 3D animation and modelling, and would need the computer to also be a good work station, and possibly even run small servers on it. Here is the build I made at www.ibuypower.com

Please comment & answer my questions, also maybe someone could build something on www.ibuypower.com for me that they think would be better.

My budget is 2500-3000, the specs above are like ... 2700

Looks good to me, but may i recommend the [SLI] eVGA Nvidia nForce 780i SLI Chipset w/7.1 Sound, Gb LAN, S-ATA Raid, USB 2.0, 3-Way PCI-E MB 3-Way SLI Motherboard. Personally I like it more, and has a 3way SLI (even though 3 GTX 280s is kinda impractical).

Wait for more responses cause im only 15 so i may be missing some details
