The title says it all... Would help if someone with similar specs to me would contribute :)

System specs:

CPU: Intel i5 2500K overclocked @ 4.4ghz
Motherboard: Asus Z68V-Pro
GPU: Point Of View GTX 460 atm (getting an EVGA Reference GTX 780 Superclocked soon)
RAM/Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 @ 1600mhz
HDD 1: 1TB Western Digital Black HDD (Local Disk)@ 7200rpm
HDD 2: 500GB Seagate (backup drive) @ 5400rpm
PSU: OCZ ModXstream Pro 700w
Case: Corsair 400R Carbide Series
OS: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro 64 Bit

Kind Regards.

P.S.

Currently I am on bios 0501, if that is of any use.

Thank you for the pretty quick response spat55 :) much appreciated, one other question I have is should I go with a reference GTX 780 Superclocked or a EVGA ACX FTW edition GTX 780? I have pretty good airflow in my case btw :D

Depends on how much price difference there is, I'd be happy with either one, but I'd choose the ACX FTW personally.
