Gonna be used for gaming, steam games, skyrim (CANT WAIT) and battlefield 3 (but juding from the new trailer the day my pc prob wont be able to run on max, it looks sooooooo good !)


One question though does anyone know what type of gtx 570 i will get, for example Evga (i hope), or the other ones?

Are you going to be overclocking ? if not then drop the k series and just get the normal 2500 CPU and you can also drop the 1600MHz ram down to the 1333MHz as you will not really notice any difference unless overclocking and if you are thinking of overclocking i would suggest getting your system preoverclocked by PCS because if you try yourself and the overclock fails then you will void you warranty on the CPU. For checking what GPU brand they have in you need to phone them up when you are ordering to see what they have at the time but mostly the nvidia GPU's have been Palit.

I think i will overclock it eventually but only the cpu and i wont be pushing it to far should be fine as i have done it before. Thnx for the advice bout the ram. I was also thinking bout ordering a SSD and installing it myself so i could use SRT as im not ordering windows preinstalled cause my granda has a copy of it already (dont worry its a legal version!)

you can still overclock without the K variant but not to crazy clocks as the K. in my view if your overclocking for gaming, i dont think its even worth it.

as for the 570, i belive its the Palit brand. You can call up PCS in the morning to double check, im sure it is the palit brand when i last looked.

Even if it doesnt max out on BF3 im sure it will be near it and the soo little difference from near max to max would be pleaseable with a 570, you'd hardly notice the difference. dont look down on a 570, its a powerhouse card afterall

Thnx for your imput ill prob tweak it a bit and then buy it next week, as long as i can run battlefield nbear the same as what its like in the trailers and skyrim then i will be fine, cant wait XD
