I would forgo the 120's and go for: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811163213

If you're going Silverstone, get THE CASE.

Not a fan PC Power and Cooling anymore.  OCZ has potatod the name.

The 2 things that stand out to me at least;

The FX-9370 is rather pointless. It's simply an up-clocked FX-8320/50, albeit possibly more stable since it's factory rated for the clocks. An 8320/50 can hit almost 5GHz on a good air or closed-loop liquid cooler (4.8GHz is my 8320 max stable within preferred voltage). For that kind of money I'd say go with an i5 or drop it down to an 8320/50 and just OC it.

PC P&C 1200W is a bit overkill for just 2x 660s. I know 2x GTX 580s can run just fine on an 850w PSU. Unless you have future plans to need that much somehow I'd personally suggest no more than 850w from SeaSonic or Corsair.
On the GPU note, isn't it normally better to just get the single best GPU one can afford at the time?

Looks to be a good build.

You do realize that AH does not use more than 2 cores out of a processor, and SLI is not used.  

Some might argue that the PSU is too large wattage wise. There was a thread up about PSU's and overkill wattages

Why select a PCI-e 2.0 mobo but a 3.0 vid card?
Why not go for triple channel DDR3 ram instead of dual?

[guncrasher]

yeah the power supply is way too much which is not good based on all I have read here.

lawn out of curiosity, you building this one for you?  because I  know your existing one is pretty fast already, however if it was me, I would rather spend the money on 3 27in monitors with a higher resolution than 1080p.

good luck

With AMD even two cores for AH is questionable. And the overkill wattage has been explained in at least two threads this year.

Only 1 Mobo (that I can think of) supports AMD and PCI-E 3.0, the Sabertooth Gen3. Even in a 2.0 slot it won't affect the card anyways.
As for Dual/Tri, AMD simply doesn't support Tri-channel. I think Intel supported it in the first i-series, but now it's Dual/Quad in the 2-4th gen?
