Hi,I have an i5 2500k and a P8Z77-V PRO Motherboard.But I want to upgrade to i7 4930k and a X79 Motherboard(BETTER is ASUS and must with QUAD SLI).And also I want to upgrade my GTX780 to GTX780 2xsli.
Also I want to upgrade my PSU and CASE which will handle the GTX780 sli.My budget is about $1350 and can it do that all?

A X79 Motherboard
A I7 4930k
A Case that handle 2x780sli
A PSU that handle 2x780sli
A GTX780
