Here is my current build. I plan to buy two 1080s once released. I believe my system may need to be upgraded from what it is now however to keep up with the 1080s. Thoughts?

I can't answer this question, in fact no one on the forum can answer this question. This is a question you need to ask yourself. First ask yourself if your hardware is doing what you desire with it (ie you are playing all your games at the desired smoothness). If your computer is not doing what you desire to do with it it is time for an upgrade (ie your games look like a slideshow).

Sorry let me rephrase. I am trying to figure out what other components need to be upgraded out of my system to handle the 2 1080s. If my cpu, motherboard and ram need an upgrade or not
