Specs are as follows:
Corsair carbide 500R case
OCZ ZS 650W PSU
Intel I5 3570k CPU (will be clocking it to 4ghz, maybe 4.2)
Gigabyte Z77 D3H motherboard
Prolimatech Megahalem CPU Cooler
Samsung Green 8GB RAM
KFA2 2GB GTX 670
Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache
Intel 330 series 120GB SSD
Windows 7 64 bit home premium
BenQ 2420T
Micrsoft sidewinder keyboard
Logitech MX performance mouse (already own)
Creative A60 2.0 speakers (will use a headset more often anyway)
Honestly cannot wait for it to arrive
I'll be free of my Imac 8,1 at last. Good computer sure, horrible for games.
So what do you all think with my eventual outcome?
*I'd like to say thank you to everyone who has offered advice on this forum. It's been much appreciated. A lot has changed on what I think of hardware and price/performance stuff. Originally I was after 3960X's with GTX 690's and the like. If i'd have waited another year and not had your help, i'd have wasted thousands out of ignorance. Massive thank you
