First Gaming rig need opinions

post #1 of 3

Thread Starter 
Long story short, here is what I was thinking:

I5-3570k
ASUS p8z77-v LK
DVD burner
Zalman aftermarket CPU fan
Zalman z11 case
Some LEDs
Intel 330 maple crest 60gb boot ssd
Caviar black 1tb SATA iii 6gb/s
Windows 7
Corsair 600w
Corsair 8gb RAM

I know I listed no graphics card, but that is because I am waiting for the gtx 660. Normally I would simply wait, but I am in need of a computer now. So I will have to deal with intel hd 4000 graphics for awhile. What do you think?

looks good. I think it's a good idea waiting for the 660 and the intel sandy bridge integrated graphics aren't that bad. smile.gif
