Hey guys. I was just curious how this pc would run gaming, specifically the GPU. You'll probably question the PSU because it's OCZ, but the reviews seem good(atleast it won't blow up), its in my price range, modular (which is a must), and 600W which I will need as I plan to crossfire the 7770 GHz in a bit if it's an effective enough card. I already have an i5 3570k, 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws X Series, and a CM HAF 922. I play pretty much every game, and hope to be able to run high/ultra on Black Ops 2, Skyrim, Metro2033, and some F2P games on steam. The reviewers on this GPU seem to achieve this. I am also wondeing if this mobo is good enough to OC, as I will be OCing a lot, and if the mobo is stable. Thanks
