I am looking to build a gaming computer with a budget of around $1700-2000 and the capability to upgrade later.
I will mainly be playing FPS probably while blasting music and downloading from utorrent so multitasking is a must. I will also be using the pc for movies, music, downloading, streaming, and once classes start I will be using it for school (computer and network security) so with all this in mind this is what I have...

this is the list of parts I have come up with... the only thing not included in that list is the grafix card (I could not find it on pcpart picker)
the one I was thinking about is ASUS ROG MARS760-4GD5 G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 760x2 4GB 512-Bit GDDR5 PCI Exp it is 499.99 on ebay.

A few other things... should I get a separate ssd for my os?
should I think about a better/ different mobo? I will have to run a wireless network card and that will take up one of my pci-exp slots... meaning if I run two grafix cards in sli or crossfire at a later date I wouldn't be able to get a good sound card because of lack of pci-exp slots. Any thoughts? ... oh and I love the red and black color scheme so with any suggestions please keep that in mind

also any input on virus, malware, spyware, etc protection is very much appreciated
