   Any help as to what tweeks anyone may offer is greatly appreciated. 

Will be used for used for digital editing , gaming, etc. 
Screen resolution now using 1900X1200

One concern is the Motherboard, is this ASUS Sabertooh OK? Will it accept a second video card in the future or just stay with it?

ALSO The cooling choice, what is the best option, the Asetek liquid cooling or would a air cooled choice be better and which one without spending too much more?

Thanks to all that reply I want to get this over with we appreciate your help.
