Nope.

You want a Z68 board so you have the option of Ivy-bridge when it comes out.

Adam123 posted a nice specification on page 1 - go back and have a look at that and ask for revisions - I'm no expert, i'll leave that for others to finalise.

**or if you can spend an extra 50-60 look at the spec below Adam123's - the i5 chip is quite a lot better than the i3, although for WoW I can't see it being much of an issue.

if you buy a coolermaster case and 500w or 600w of the silent pro modular psu you get £20 off the psu

total = ~£550 inc delivery but then you use the code to get £20 off the cm psu to make it ~£530

if you want nvidia 560ti over the 560 I would think, the asus 560ti direct cuii is currently £162
