cleaned out my pc and I had enough dust in it to make a castle out of it. I dropped about 30C's just doing that alone

I personally can't stand wireless keyboards and mice (G700 being the exception). Especially cheap ones.
Edit: Also, stick to recommending the wired 360 controller. You need the wireless receiver in order to get the wireless ones to work and the drivers for the receiver are a pain to get working properly.

Trying to build for the majority and I would think most would want a wireless kb/m
I added a heatsink to the last build now.

I'm contemplating selling my superclocked 570 and getting another card. I don't want to SLI...do you guys encounter too many problems due to SLI like tearing etc. ?
I've never had a problem with the drivers for the 360 wireless controller
I ask because I want the best...no compromises
Tearing is due to your FPS exceeding your monitors refresh rate. With vsync on you won't see any tearing. That or if you have a 120hz or more monitor.

I'm beginning to think I was sold a bootleg receiver.
Also, you use the word best very loosely. For 1K you will have plenty of compromises.

Ya but I've always been under the impression that one card solutions always trump 2 cards. SLI usually has less support for issues ( probably more now) and such. I think i meant microstuttering not tearing. Anyway what would 2 570s even be like? I rarely see 570 benchmarks.
I'm not sure what to say about the kb/m thing. it's just that I feel like people are gonna want something a lot better if they really get into PC gaming. especially with the mouse. obviously you can always upgrade, but at the same time I know people might not want to buy something twice
I'm not sure what to recommend though. a nice kb & mouse can easily run 10x that $15 price. I would definitely prioritize the mouse. aside from higher DPI, having a mouse with extra buttons really helps. getting a backlit keyboard made a big difference for me, cause it made it easy to play with the lights out
if nothing else, I guess it's something for people to consider and factor into their purchase. especially if they don't mind spending a little more money, and they really want a 'bad-ass' rig

Its really tough because I want a few things:
The best performance possible with all wireless peripherals since that is what many people expect. I also want to eliminate wasted parts since not many are going to be dealing with selling and swapping out parts like we do.
Look for 580 SLI benchmarks and subtract about 15%. If you are susceptible to micro stutter I'd go with a Kepler set up (600s/700s). They're a good increase from a 570 and if you ever SLI those they have hardware frame metering which prevents micro stutter. I myself never had a micro stutter with 570's or 580s in SLI nor have I had any other issues with it. Been so good that I won't ever go single card.
Been there, done that.

Which CPU are you recommending? The title says 4670K but link and price matches the locked 4430.
If that's the case a 3570K will easily outperform that locked down Haswell chip. I'd pair it up with either an Asrock Extreme4M or Asrock Pro 4.
Also not sure why any person using your list would need a 1000W PSU. (Especially some shyt branded Xion
)My PC with all the shyt in it barely reaches 750W. And that's with everything overclocked and usage maxed at the same time.
