So apologies for the double posting - I have this going on in a separate thread. However it's gone past the 'should I?' now and is more 'what do I get? 
'.
As background, my current spec is
EVGA 780i FTW edition motherboard
EVGA GTS 250 (1gb) graphics card
4 GB OCZ Platinum Ram - DDR2
x6800 core 2 due extreme (2.93 ghz - oc'd to 3.2 ghz)
150 GB Raptor HD
320 GB Seagate Baracuda
1 TB Samsung Spinpoint F1 or F3 (not entirely sure)
Tagan 900W (I think) PSU
Windows 7 x64
Akasa Eclipse case
2 Optical drives - DVD ROM drive and DVD RW drive.
Thanks to the wonderful people in the other thread, I've come up with the below.
Would welcome thoughts please!
Would also like suggestions on the CPU cooler - the corsair one some people recommended seems good, but I don't want to mess around with water stuff at the moment (this is only my second ever build), even if it is closed loop.
Case is TBD. Will get help from people here/in Case Central once the spec is finalised.
Anything else I need? It will be used for gaming, but not too extensively (a few hours a week and more on the weekends). In particular, i'd like to be able to play the following, but not yet released games on full (which is impossible to say now, but a spec that should most likely be able to handle it would be good): Dragon Age III, Witcher 3. Monitor res is 1920 x 1200 (24").
I have OS, keyboard, mouse, monitor.
