oddly enough the 980ti is better than the titan x in 90% of applications. And 2 of them will be incredibly powerful but you can take one off if you don't think you need 2. You should also invest in a really good monitor with a 980ti or the buy would be a complete waste.
Unless you plan on doing a LOT of rendering a 4790k is perfectly fine
I added an ssd because at this price point it is definitely recommended
the motherboard you picked was super overkill
this case is better IMO
You dont need 32gb of ram for gaming and light - medium rendering.
