For $10 more you can get 1tb. I also included the 7870, and a hyper evo so you can overclock. Also, the Antec Neo Eco 620w is made by SeaSonic just like the XFX , its just half the price because its on sale. GTX 660 and 7870 are almost the same performnce but in some games the AMD wins and in other the nVidia card wins, it all comes down to what you play. On another note, if you don't wanna overclock you could look into this:
