Forget the GTX 275's save your money and pair up two HIS 5770's. Secondly I'd recommend 1600mhz for memory especially if you plan to overclock. I'd also avoid that coolermaster PSU and try for the Corsair 1000W modular one. Make sure you have proper cooling for that 955 I'd like to see you go with a Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme. GOOD LUCK !

RAM: Patriot Viper 6GB 1600MHz DDR3
