Maybe he just wants to build an AMD system, I know i did, just to do it. I like that build, alot of overkill in there, but hey if you can afford it, why not? I am not a fan of that heatsink or even the evo, I know they perform well, i just think they are junky. The mounting system sux, you will often see them crooked on peoples builds. I prefer the Noctua NH-D14. It is a quality product, and i think your budget can do it. Also your almost in that $2000 range, why not get a 780. Its the whos who of GPUs right now.
