I'd suggest you get a better case. There's not much cable management in that case. My friend has one, he hates it. Just a thought though.

Don't forget a cooler if you are going to overclock!

212 evo if you want a good overclock and OK temps
https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/information/pageBuilder.html?kind=pcBuilder&componentType=required&articleId=915234&className=cpufan&activeClassName=cpufan
D14 if you want a slightly better overclock with much better temps

Be careful how you word it. A Quality 750W PSU will be able to power SLI 570s without an issue, but this PSU, having only ~600W on the 12v rail will have trouble doing it. It will run the SLI setup, but once under heavy load, it will shut down.

My comment is in regard to the PSU inquestion and the OP understands this.
