Hey guys I have been strictly a console gamer, but the mind blowing graphics on BF3 preview made me a PC gamer believer and I am in the process of building my first rig. Here is my planned setup. I have about half of the components so far. How does my setup look to the pros out there? I will be using 1920x1080 display. Will my rig be powerful enough to run triple screen surround vision in 2d/3d at max settings or close to it?(use BFBC2 for example). I know that's asking a lot. Will the i5 2500k stock speeds bottleneck the system? How much performance (FPS benchmark)do you think I will get if OC'ed to 4.8ghz? I started with a budget PC plan, but that went to hell, and figured I want a monster. Thanks guys, can't wait till Oct., here's the list.
-Asus Z68 Pro mobo
-i5 2500k (will OC)
-Thermalright Silver Arrow cooler
-RAM 8gb DDR3 1600 @ 1.5v CL9(looking for good deal) Corsair or Gskill?
-Nvidia GTX 590 (or Kepler card if release in next few months)
-Corsair 1050w professional series (for double or triple SLI future upgrades)
-Samsung Spinoint F4 2tb HDD
-SSD 20-64gb to utilize SRT on z68 mobo(still looking for deal)sugguestion?
-Cooler Master haf x 942
-disc drive(undecided)
Sorry if any errors, still pretty green, but doing my research.
