New Computer, anyone see any issues here?

Hi gang,

I having been working on a build for the last month that will allow me some minor OC ability (not all that familiar with it) and allow me some longevity. I know there are some serious power houses to be built with the right amount of money thrown at them, but this is something I wanted to keep in the 1200-1300 range and still get the most bang for my buck.

CPU--Core i5-750 $194.99
Mobo--Gigabyte P55-UD4P $188.99
GPU--XFX HD 5870 $397.99
PS--Silverstone OP800 800W $119.99
RAM--4GB G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3 PC3 12800 $114.99
OS--Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit $104.99
CPU Heatsink--ZEROTherm Core92 $31.99
HD--WD Caviar Black 750 GB $69.99
Case--NZXT M59 $56.99
Optical Drive--LG DVD $22.99

Total system cost comes to $1424.88 with shipping.

Am I missing anything here that anyone can see? It looks like everything I have selected will work together just fine. I know the NZXT case is going to be a tight fit for the 48" ATI 5870, but it should still work. Based on what I have looked at and researched this should give me a fair gaming rig with some room for improvement in the next year or two. Xfire, Eyefinity triple monitor, Proc upgrade, Additional RAM, SDD ect.

Ideas, thoughts, opinions, comments?

**Changed the RAM price**

Is this for gaming? If so, here's a better build.

CPU: i5-750 $195
Mobo: Asus P7P55D-E Pro $190
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws 2x2 GB 1600 mhz CAS Latency 7 $115
GPU/PSU: HD 5870 and Antec Earthwatts 750W $463
HDD: Seagate 7200.12 1 TB $95. Or wait for the Samsung Spinpoint F3 1 TB for $5 less.
Case: HAF 922 $90 after rebate
HSF/Optical: Coolermaster Hyper 212 Plus and cheap SATA DVD burner $40
OS: Windows 7 Home $105

Total: $1,283.

Main changes: The board you picked is the older Foxconn socket boards. It had a problem when trying to OC above 4 GHz. The one I chose has USB 3/SATA III support without it being disabled when you Crossfire.

Case: The HAF is quite possibly the best case out right now. You don't ever need to worry about it being small.


PSU: A great one in combo with the HD 5870.

HSF: The Coolermaster Hyper 212 is one of the best HSF out right now.

HDD: The Samsung is faster, quieter, cooler and cheaper/GB.

Thanks for the tips! I never really paid attention to the combo deals before. You can bet I will in the future.
