The HD 6950 over the dual 5770 because then you will have the option to crossfire in the future come time to upgrade.

I would reccomend this board since it is AM3+ ready:

When are you purchasing? Bulldozer will be out in just over a month. For a build today most would reccommend an i5 2500K build over the 1090T.

There is no signifigant difference in a quad core processor and anything more for gaming. That being said, i would go with the i5-2500k and the 6950.

If you dont plan on building it yourself, send to custompcandrepairs.com with the price you want to pay and see if they can match it.
