$900 Gaming Build (revised... again)

Alright I just had a thread about a $700 build but I said "meh, I don't wanna upgrade for a while."
I plan on doing a little bit of overclocking. So here is my final build. Tell me what you guys think!

Corsair Carbide Series 400R Black
Corsair Enthusiast Series TX650
ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3
Intel Core i5-2500K
EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Ti
Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3

that 560ti is poking at my ribs. 6950 or 570. The rest is perfect.

No do not downgrade to the 460 not even worth it. The 560 Ti is fine. Just tweak (OC) it a little bit to say 900MHZ and it'll be the equivalent of the 570.

As for the PSU I suggest saving money on the PSU

Cheaper and you get more power (future SLI) After promo code it's only $70 before rebates.

You want to purchase a 650w that costs more

While a 750w that has the same efficiency is cheaper price?

Worse than the 560 Ti. There's a difference. The GTX 560 NO TI is worse by far than the 560 Ti. Always look for Ti.

Hunter I don't understand what's wrong with the 750w, It's like you don't want the best bang for the buck.

Just keep the 2500K, Remember a video card is more important for gaming then anything though. The 460 is getting a little dated but its ok i would get a 6870 or 6950 though or even a 560. Really this GPU is real nice

Only $239.99 and its totally worth it can play almost any game 100% maxed out with very great performance believe me i know!

With this build will I be able to run games like Mafia 2, Crysis, Red Orchestra 2, Dirt 3, DoW2 and BF3 on max settings at 1650x1080?

aznshinobi is going to flame me for this but 560ti when SLI it has micro stuttering. 570 doesn't and neither does 6950. You like nvidia, oki, get the 570, one of them. See how the scene looks like in 2 years, either sli it or get another.
For your budget i would recommend the 6950 but... but.
+1 for the OCZ psu. The only bad psu ocz makes is the fatal1ty series. Stay away from it and you are good.
If you arent going sli ever you might as well get the 560ti. Anyway, it is all a matter of perspective.

I'm not going flame you. But I disagree with EVERYONE saying that Microstuttering is a huge deal. It's not that big of a deal, mainly since drivers have hampered the HUGE effect (though still it exists) I think people can bear a bit of Micro-stuttering, I mean I do it's not even THAT bad.

I also think a single 560 Ti overall is a better bang for the buck. With the cheapest being $220 and the cheapest 570 being $320. True both can be OC'd but the 560 Ti runs so cool already and plus it's much quieter, that OCing it to a simple 900mhz would make it the equivalence of a 570. If OP didn't want to OC he could get this 560 Ti and be done with it, he'd still save about $85 for the same performance.

Micro stuttering isn't only in SLI it's in both.

No matter what there will be microstuttering in Xfire and SLI, patches minimize but will never fix it.

I'm saying that Micro-stuttering will always exist until THE PERFECT drivers are released. Micro-stuttering isn't consistent, it's once in a long while and only happens for a brief moment. I'm just correcting your statement that drivers will fix the issue permanently.

I would just go with the 560 Ti now if you upgrade later it'll be more spent total.

You should get the 560 no Ti in that case, the 460 is just too expensive right now running close to the 6870 but doesn't offer that performance.

Well according to Newegg CA, the cheapest 460 is $150 while the cheapest 560 is $180 which is only $30. On top of that entirely your decision. The 560 gets anywhere from 6-20 FPS better depending on the game.

... A quick newegg search would be much faster...
