What do you guys think about this setup for primarily? I might be getting another 7970 ghz to crossfire later on or get dual 8870s or something when the new 8800s come out, I wanted a good motherboard and power supply, they are very important to me.

Very nice, I have an i5 cpu aswell but mine is not a K series so it is not overclockable, get yourself an aftermarket cooler, or even liquid cooling, and overclock that puppy! hahaha

One thing you could do do increase the speed of your pc overall is get an SSD for a boot drive and use that 2tb for games and programs, I.E. Storage :)

Very nice setup good sir. I agree with previous post that an SSD would be nice, but ultimately you can add that later if you choose.

I wish I could upgrade my CPU now (Sigh).
