Hello, I have a Gaming system here that I have built on NewEgg. I just want to make sure I'm getting the right parts before I make a purchase. Much feedback needed. Here's the list of parts I have in my shopping cart at the moment:

1.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139017
2.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136533
3.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236305
4.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130812
5.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139011
6.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145345
7.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131821
8.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116501
9.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099
10.) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827136250

Also I'll be using this PC to mostly play games like Battlefield 3, Skyrim, The Witcher 2, Far Cry 3, etc. I'd also like this PC to play newer games that will be coming out later this year. Any feedback is much appreciated. Thank you and criticize it as much as possible if needed.

hey ur going all out on this build, why not just go for a haswell system?
everything looks good though!

I would just change the cpu to the new i7-4xxx series and get an 1150, z87 mobo.

either way, this is more then enough to play any game on ultra on 1920x1080.
I have an old i7-920 with a stock 660ti and its more then enough

Would the new 4th generation i7 cpu's be faster than 3rd generation? I haven't heard much about 4th generation cpu's. Also do they have 4th generation cpu's that are unlocked? I might consider getting a 4th generation though.

Do NOT get an i7 for gaming an i5 is cheaper and performs the same in game. The 4th gen intels perform 10-15% better but get hotter.

Which i5 cpu is the best one to get and is it overclock friendly? If I get an i5 I could really cut my bill in half which is pretty good too.

the 4th gen is faster and any extra heat produced is no match for your cpu cooler

yea an i5 would be good. This is the best i5 that is unlocked and oc friendly: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116899
