Budget around 1500$ give or take.
CPU - Intel i5 2500k
Mobo - ASRock P67 EXTREME4 (B3)
RAM - G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
GPU - Asus GTX 570
SSD - OCZ Vertex 3 VTX3-25SAT3-120G
HDD - Samsung F3 1tb
PSU - OCZ OCZ750FTY 750W
CPU Cooler - Prolimatech Megahalems
Case - Thermaltake ArmorPlus full tower case. I have the HAF 932 and like it but was looking for something different.
This build is for my brother. He mainly just games on this comp. I have a similar setup and know I like it but it was before the sandybridge stage and was wondering how all of this would still scale.
Going with the gtx 570 because I can't justify 200$ or 400$ for the 580 or 590. I've always had gl with nvidia so I'd like to stick with them.
Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.
