need computer guys help! building new on

[dreamchasin]

Okay well I sold my ultimate gaming setup a few months back and I am so sad I did so, I miss being able to play. So therefore, I am building one but I want to get everyone's take on it. I need to stay BELOW $1,100, and this is what I built on newegg. Tell me if it's good and if I forgot anything.

Power supply borderline, if not too small.

Drop down to the i5 and up the power supply size a bit. And speaking of processor, do you really want to use the factory CPU cooler?

Also, your forgetting optical media or card readers. It's very handy having a bluray burner. And a WiFi card, if your using wireless.

Don't watch bluray, and i HATE wireless.

Ok, I have that very power supply and I freaking love it, but it may be a bit too small. Right now mines power an i5 2500k, 3x2tb hard drive, GTX460 superclocked, and, 16Gb DDR3 1888.

Drop the 2600k, and up it to a 3770 for $20 more and open up PCIe 3.0 for future use. Do you plan on overclocking past what it does automatically? It's a more powerful processor, with the less power consumption at a 77W TDP compared to the 2600k at 95W TDP. Up to this, and that PSU should be A-ok.

So the 3770 is better? could have sworn i compared them yesterday and the 2600k was better. i do not plan on O/C, i leave it stock. my old alienware had a quad core @ 2.8ghz and ran everything perfectly smooth

which 3770? 3770s or 3770

[TurboJake]

in synthetic tests, it's 12% better. But it's also Ivy bridge, instead of sandy bridge. Which offers PCIe 3.0, and lower power consumption. but not much further past that.

the 2600k is better for overclocking though. That's why I asked.

(I forgot Ivy had launched in my first post...)
