Can someone look over my hardware here and let me know if I'll have any problems with this set up. I'm trying to build a good gaming computer but I'm not too familiar with all the best hardware anymore. I'm really worried about the video cards using so much power from the PSU I don't know if its enough. Also I heard those were the top of the line ATI cards but I haven't found much research on performance/reliability. I want to be able to run all recent/future games on max settings.

Well you are buying a SLi mother board and two ATI cards. If you want to use Crossfire you can't get a SLi board. You should either change to Video cards to nVidia or change your mother board to a cross fire supported mother board. On that Note You might wish to look in to switching the whole system to a Core 2 duo due to that they are currently out preforming the AMDs.

I don't know a whole lot about AMD processors, but I believe that DDR2-667 is good for someone who won't o/c a Core 2 Duo, but for AMD DDR2-800 is recommended all the time. And it seems you are going for quite some performance, so I would go for 800.

And of course, I would suggest going for Core 2 Duo, not quite sure what your budget is...

Also, Crossfire or SLI isn't supposed to be all that amazing and worth it perfomance for bucks wise. I'd say get a good GPU, like what you did and when you want more, get another good GPU to replace it, you'll get better performance that way for a similar price. But then again, if your budget is very big...
