A few questions -

Will this be good to throw games like crysis 2, COD, battlefield 3, bad company 2 etc at it on full settings and it look smooth? I have a 1080p display.

Any disadvantage over getting this motherboard as opposed to it's deluxe edition?

Would you swap any components for cheaper alternatives? Are the components I have chosen reliable?

Thanks,
Mike
 
Brilliant. I'll probably be buying this around the 14th-16th March, so some of the special offers won't be around then, although some more porducts may have reduced in price to cater for that! :)

Also hopefully the c400 is released by then too!

I'm a web developer and university student. Run many apps at once like dreamweaver, photoshop, FTP programs, many firefox tabs and other browsers so thought 8GB RAM would be good to have.
