Help spec a noob a gaming PC!

Stulid, read your own links ;)

Look as res increases, as detail increase. Tell me what happens... :rolleyes:

Even my £40 cheaper HD6870 beats the GTX560Ti in some cases at varying res' and details.

OP, the middle spec is the best one I've seen yet - go for that if you don't want to stretch budget to get SLI board + GTX480

What about the last spec with an asus motherboard? I can't seeing myself going SLI down the line...

Only that it only has 2 6gb sata ports, while the ASUS has four no? I'm only thinking about this irritating sandybridge bug!
