'Sup?

I know more about computers now. Glacier was dumb, because I was uneducated. It was also too expensive. Now I kind of actually know how computers work. Or at least how building one works. Kind of. At least I know better know than the past.
Man, I feel unwelcome in this discussion because I post so much crap.
I've decided to call this build Pesticide. No real reason, it just sounds cool. Like the logo I used the internet to make? Sure you do. Let's jump into it.


The Build


CPU: Intel i7 4790K
CPU Cooling: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo
Motherboard: Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (DDR3-2133)
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 1TB SSD
Graphics Card: Radeon R9 290X (x2?)
Case: Corsair 760T Black*
Power Supply: Cooler Master v1000
*I don't know the case dimensions in comparison to the GPU so that's a problem.


More Stuff


Assuming when I get a job, each paycheck will be an estimated $300 dollars. That's approximately $600 a month, requiring me to work about 3-4 months to afford it all, if I want extra specs. The total price is $1876 CAD. Possible changes may be the SSD or GPU. Me and a friend both currently use Hyper 212 EVO fans and they work like a charm. Not gonna overclock, so hey.
Tips for first time builders and part suggestions are welcome.

Nice name, so can it kill insects once they touch your computer?
