Is it all compatible?

2 questions:

In mobo specs it says 2 x PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16 (x16 or dual x8)
what does it mean by dual x8. what i want is 2x 3.0 x16, is that what its saying?

and am i future proofed at all? if i am then for how long.
thanks guys,

There's no such thing as future proofing. If it's games you're after you're doing this build very wrong if that's what you want.

Compatible? Yes. Ideal? For that budget you can do way better. Instead of dual 7850s get a single 7970. That heat sink you have is junk and no better than the stock fan. The fan controller and extra fans aren't needed until you get your build up and running. This would be a more ideal configuration if you're going to be gaming.

Here's what I would do:

With the difference you can get a monitor and whatever else you need.

With that case, thinking you can pass on additional fans. Should be cool enough.
