Help is this system ok?

[Sabercy]

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone is able to advise me on if the system below will run efficiently? I have set it up for gaming, I know its not the best of the best but i plan on upgrading it later on with another Gpu for crossfire and maybe a bigger PSU if needed. So could anyone please advise me if this is alright and how well do you think it would run and game. I'm planning on playing BF3, Diablo3 and whatever gets thrown at me! Many thanks

CPU - For all practical purposed the i7-2600 is bragging rights. You could drop to the i5-2500k with a mild overclock and not look back...

MEM - A good alternative is DDR3-1333 with lower latency (CL7) such as the link below.

PSU - 750w is enough to add a second HD 6950 down the road, but the 850w would give a little more peace of mind.

Yes definitely if it is for gaming drop the CPU down to I5 2500K! Other than that looks good.
