New AMD Gaming Build

[CM-Sniper]

Evening one and all,
I'm currently in the process of building my new gaming rig, with a touch of Photoshop here and there, and was wondering what your opinions were on this build plan:

- OCZ 600W StealthXstream PSU (Purchased from OCUk back when they were at bargain prices of just 45 smackers)
- AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE CPU
- Asus M4A89GTD PRO, AMD 890GX Motherboard
- GeIL 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Memory
- Samsung F3 1Tb HDD
- LG 24x DVD/Rw Drive from current PC
- XFX Radeon 5750 OC'ed @ 850Mhz Core Clock (Purchased a while back. Tempted to get another of these for crossfire. Either that or sell it on and upgrade to something a bit beefier. Opinions?)
- CM Storm Sniper BE Case (Purchased back at the start of the new year)
- Antec Kuhler 690 CPU Cooler

Any opinions/recommendations on this build or is it already alright for what I'm after, which again, is simply to play games in high settings (excluding Crysis 1 of course.) and the occasional use of Photoshop here and there.

Cheers,
CMS

I would save 10-15 quid and get the 955 and simply bump the multiplier up on BIOS to get the 965 clock.

Yeah that's been suggested to me elsewhere as well so i think I'll do that

Okay so I've now decided on a 955 BE instead, especially with the weekend deal on OC this weekend

Any other suggestions whilst I've still got the cash?

Cheers

Drop the 5750 and replace it with a nice 6850/70.
