i do gaming and 3d modeling/ rendering

im looking to up grade to this good idea?

curent psu is single 850W Going to reuse for fans and dvd/blueray drives

also im looking for the best crunch power / price

Umm are you saying you are going to get three Asus ROG video cards? You would be better off getting Two GTX 970's, would cost you about $400 less and should perform better.

i was thing about it because of the 760x2 per card

i was thing about it because of the 760x2 per card

I don't know much about 3d modeling / rendering video card usage but for gaming you will see much better performance from Two GTX 970s than you will from Three of those other cards. In most cases ( I will use 100% as a base line for 1 GPU) Sli (two GPUs) will give you about 180-190% performance, Three will give you ~200-220%, any more than three and you will see little to no performance gain and might start to see decreases in performance. So with SIX GTX 760's (three Asus ROG MARS760) you will only get use out of maybe 3 while gaming (and you will only have 2gb of usable video ram). The GTX 970 is about twice as fast as the GTX 760, So those Two GTX 970s will out perform Six GTX 760s in games and the GTX 970's will also give you 4gb of usable video ram allowing you to get much better performance at higher resolutions/settings.

 

[getthisout]

something like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487088 x2 be better?

Yes those would be much better.

You won't need more than 1 PSU for this system... a single 1500w is going to be overkill as it is. A good quality 850w would be plenty to run the whole system including your blueray/dvd/ fans. What model is your current 850w PSU, odds are you will be fine with just it and not need to buy any additional PSUs.
Also for the hard drives you would be better off getting Two or even Three of the 1 TB version... its only $7 more for twice the storage space. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16822236625

Add more to curent raid witch is 500bg version of that drive

Curent liquid coolers are drawing more power thin expexted and getting system stiblty issues
