and money isnt that big of an issue if you have a suggestion for something better i should get, or if i should add something or whatever.

I really want 2 graphics cards, and I'm pretty sure the setup i have given is capable of hdmi output...although i wasnt sure because i couldnt find the specs on the mother board...even though the graphics card IS capable of HDMI output.

The ASUS SABERTOOTH P67 LGA 1155 SATA 6Gbps and USB 3.0 Supported Intel P67 DDR3 1800 ATX Motherboard has a 2 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (x16 or dual x8) slot, so you can add 2 EVGA GeForce GTX 580 video card in SLI without any issues. Also it comes with a network card onboard so there is no need to invest in another network card. And every other components looks decent.
