Anyway I want to know if there is anything wrong with this build, if there are any parts I should get instead that would perform better for equal or lesser value. Let me know what you think, thanks!

Cores aren't what matter to me the most. Technically dual cores are still the most efficient processors on the market (for gaming). Anyway that CPU isn't something I don't want to get or trade for. My worry was the RAM. I was a little clueless on which one to get. And I am pretty sure my PSU is okay. I will have to use some of the 4 pin to PCIe converters I have so no biggy. I also want to stick with that mobo. I want to SLI two GTX 460's.

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate your help.

Also, how do you get your computer specs to show under everything you post?

Sell, your GTX 460, get a GTX 570 or GTX 560ti 448, switch your MB to a Z68 MB.
