So the parts are:
GTX 650 ti boost (not sure what company)( thinking of a 660 now)
Corsair Carbide Series 300k
WD blue 500GB HDD
SanDisk 64 GB SSD
Corsair TX650w
intel core i5 3570k
Corsair Vengeace 12GB (3x4GB) (not sure if 12 gb is overkill)
Cooler Master Hyper EVO 212
Asrock z77 extreme4

So these are the parts that im planing to buy.

EDIT:

My budget is around 940$
I will stick to the 8 gigs of ram thanks :D
I was wondering seagate made those new SSHD do the ones for laptop works like a normal HD?

12 gb of ram is overkill, and you definitely want to have pairs of it (2gbx2, 4gbx2) to run in Dual Channel mode

Id suggest going with a TX line of Corsair PSUs (they contain better made components)

I would completely agree with the above if this is for gaming I would go with at least a GTX 660ti if not a GTX 670 or a AMD/ATI HD 7950 ether one would be a better pick for gaming. As for ram you will want to install your ram in pairs of two to stay in dual channel mode for better performance. 8gig is really all that is needed for gaming currently so 2x4gig would work for your needs. I went with 16gig in my i5 rig but I do alot of Photoshop and video editing with this rig as well as gaming. If it was just for gaming I would have only done 8gig.

Do you live within driving distance of a Microcenter? May have a deal on that CPU/mobo combo.

900 is between 720 and 1080. The higher the resolution, the harder the GPU has to work at any given set of eye candy. Can see the BF3 results (as an example) for the 650ti here:

It's definitely playable but won't be able to match the refresh rate of your monitor (60Hz).

Nope i dont leave near a microcenter, the nearest microcenter from where i live must be like 2000 miles away LOL but those benchmarks that you have shown to me are for gtx 650 ti, not ti BOOST. The ti boost must be between the 7850 and 660 i believe. but thanks for the info about the res :)
