Final gaming computer specs, please review?

On first glance looks like a solid build (means i didn't check anything yet). Very smart to have thought about a soundcard, but there are still a few things missing:

- gamingmouse (i''m pretty sure you wil plan to buy one so i leave that to you, but i would advice to get a wired mouse and use a deeeeep mousetable or desk, with the wire fixed at the deep end so the wire has room to slide in a flat curve without becoming a nuicanse, this may sound like a hardly significant remark but it realy isn't)

- monitor (get one ;-), preferably 24" and definately hd)

- wireless headhpones (personally i love my wireless headhpones that use easily removable (important) standard rechargable aaa batteries that i swap out when empty with some batteries "driploading" in my hape (that's a brand) batteryloader (don''t start becomming a nuicanse yourself by using speakers ;-) ))

- system backup strategy (this is absolutely essential. i would urgently advice to get 2 internal hdd's (you can get 2 6Gb/s hdd's for 140 at newegg and bootit bm ($40) available here:

- windows 7: (get windows 7 home premium full oem 64 bit, as this is sufficient in most cases but for specific functionality needs you could decide to get the professional or ultimate edition keeping in mind that the different editions perform the same, also definately get an oem edition:

- a 3rd party cpu-cooler. Even when not overclocking a 3rd party cpu-cooler might be better although not absolutely nescesarry. I like cpu-coolers with a big heatsink and big fan because the are most efficient and quiet but make sure the cooler fits the casing if it''s realy big.

- also nice looking and usefull is a fancontroller preferably with it''s own temperature sensors, but you could add that at a later time.

I'm not going to check all your components, way to much work, but i'll take a (limited) look at the motherboard, cpu and video card.

Generally get the best cpu you can afford because the cpu typically is not upgradable like your videocard would be. If you can afford it the 2600k is a good choice:

You could safe yourself a lot of money by getting for instance a hd 6950 videocard. you may have decided on the gtx 580 because it's the best one available and gaming is all about a good videocard, which is true, but a hd 6950 is about half the price while performing only a bit less: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.ht... If a hd 6950 (or even a a hd 6850, still the best bang for buck champion i believe) can play the games you want to play now, then maybe settle for that and keep the money in your pocket for a later upgrade.

Also when having no direct plans to overclock and/or use sli or crossfire you could do with a cheaper but quality motherboard that doesn't allow for this. Getting the right motherboard is very important as it binds everything together and determines what you can do with the computer, but best is not always most expensive. It's true though that when in doubt a more expensive board wil be likely better. Your motherboard (i checked the oldest 1.0 revision) should support your cpu with the original (F4) bios, so that's good. Also the ultra-durable design is very apealing. Here is a bit more cheaper Z68 motherboard ($130) also from gigabyte that should also be compatible with your cpu, and has a "tom's hardware 2011 recommended buy" award:

NIIIIIIIIIICE! good, solid and future proof build. I advise getting a good aftermarket CPU cooler EVEN IF u wont do any OC ing because for extended periods of gaming heat can build up in yr case and yr CPU might start to sweat a little :D Also I advise getting the Cooler Master CM690 case because it has better cooling then XION case also there is an "Nvidia Edition" of it which just looks wicked awesome! I actually had that case but I had to upgrade to a full tower case recently cuz of space issues. Good luck and game hard \m/ >_< \m/

great pc but do u mind telling me ur cpu cooler if u gonna do any overclocking which i assume u are u gonna need a good cpu cooler other than that great!!

i think u r gonna be a hardcore gamer

that's great sys specs

where is the moniter,keyboard,speakers?
