Is this a good gaming rig?

here is what I'm looking to get: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/NsHY

will this last me a while and be able to run most games on max?

Yes it's good but it'd be better to lose the i7 and get a i5-3570k and then up the GPU to a 7970.

Get W7 Home Premium, a cheaper SSD, a cheaper case. You'll have more money for other stuff, and still have the same performance.

I'd drop the 3770 for a 3570k

Drop the Blue for the Black

Here's a better case / PSU combo which would allow for a future upgrade to a 2nd GFX card

And personally, I'd move to the Asus 670 DCII with plans to add a 2nd one later on down the road.

i can get the i7 3770k for 240 so im going to stick with that but is there a graphics card that would be better for the same price?
