Absolutely, if you're Xfiring 7970's, toss the crap AMD Bulldozer CPU. An i3 would fair better. It looks like you have a huge budget, but I can't really guess it. Do if I were you, I would drop a 7970 card and get an i7 3930k, that is if you'll be doing video editing/rendering. Otherwise get an i7 2700k and keep the 2nd 7970.

Not epic, stopped reading at AMD FX then I realized you put 2 7970's. Your computer will not reach even half of its potential.
