This is probably the best build you can get for $1000.

There is no point in me showing you a $1000 full AMD build, because the $1000 Intel/nVidia build is much better, so there is no point in choosing the AMD build.

Here is the best you can get for $1000 without the parts you have already got.

You don't need to worry about buying a new power supply, because you can use the power supply that you already have.

At the $1000 budget, SLI/Crossfire is a bad idea. 1 single GTX 980 is better than any 2 cards in SLI that you can afford for under $1000.
