Hi guys,
This is my first time building a PC and I have a $1300 budget.
I will primarily use the pc for gaming (BF3, Civ, Shogun2), photography (Adobe CS5) and some HD video editing. This is what I'm thinking of getting so far:
Can you please advise me if the the GTX 560 Ti is good enough or should I invest in something better?
I was also thinking of the i7 2600k as well for my video work, but I don't know if the price difference really justifies the change.
CPU: Core i5-2500k
Cooler: Corsair CWCH60 Hydro Series H60
GPU: GTX 560 Ti 1GB
Mobo: ASUS P8Z68-V LX
Ram: Patriot G2 Series 8GB DDR3
SDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
Sound: Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy 7.1
Drive: Lite-On Internal DVD Writer
Case: Cooler Master HAF 912 Mid-Tower
PSU: Ultra LSP650 650-Watt Power Supply
OS: Windows 7 home
Monitor: Viewsonic VX2453MH-LED 24-Inch
Keyboard: Logitech G110
Mouse: Razer Deathadder 3500
Thanks in advance for your help.
