Building a new gaming PC - need help.

[irtehleet]

I have came up with the following parts for my build:

 

Intel Core i5 750 Quad Core Processor Lynnfield LGA1156 2.66GHZ 8MB Cache Retail Box - http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=42499

 

Western Digital WD1001FALS Caviar Black 1TB SATA2 7200RPM 4.2MS 32MB 3.5IN Dual Proc Hard Drive OEM - http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=310...mp;promoid=1230

 

G.SKILL F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL Ripjaws PC3-12800 4GB 2X2GB DDR3-1600 CL9-9-9-24 Core i5 1.5V Memory Kit - http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=427...mp;promoid=1230

 

Antec Nine Hundred Mid Tower Gamer Case 900 ATX 9 Drive Bay No PS Top USB2.0 1394 Audio - http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=21123

 

Biostar T5XE ATX LGA1156 P55 DDR3 2PCI-E 2PCI SATA2 RAID Sound GBLAN CrossFireX Motherboard - http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=49118

 

Thermaltake Purepower 600W ATX Power Supply EPS12V V2.91 24PIN SLI CrossFire Ready 120MM Fan - http://ncix.com/products/?sku=43974&vp...ure=Thermaltake

 

XFX Radeon HD 5770 850MHZ 1GB 4.8GHZ GDDR5 2XDVI HDMI Display Port DIRECTX11 PCI-E Video CARD - http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=44932

 

 

 

 

I wanted to go with Nvidia, but couldnt find a motherboard for under $150 in www.ncix.com that supported SLI, so I went with a Crossfire support motherboard and ATI card.

 

I want to stay under $1000 as well, which the above has done.

 

Any suggestions/comments? Everything is welcome.

Also, none of it is ordered yet so Im up for completely switching up anything if you feel its needed!

that looks like a nice high mainstream machine, but wait for some of the OCC bargain hunters to make any decisions

Look at the OCC Market section. I posted a deal that MWave is having for the 1TB Spinpoint F3 for $79 (no tax, free shipping). If you get two, it's $76.99 each.

 

The 1TB Spinpoint F3 is much faster than the 1TB Caviar Black (I own both).

The HX650 should be more than enough. Corsair makes very good power supplies

 

A 5770 doesn't use too much power...you could drop down and still have some room to play.

Yes I really want Nvidia, but couldnt find a board for under $150 that supports SLI, I guess with this board now I have room to get a nvidia card instead, any ideas on which one to get?

 

Also I plan to stick with www.ncix.com for the whole build.
