i had a problem with the asrock z77 extreme 4. get the gigabyte z77x-ud3h. it has awesome vrm's and had many world records with HWBOTS because it was beefy enough for extreme LN2 benching. couldn't say the same with the asrock board. mine was turning on by its own when it felt like so I replaced it with the gigabyte board/. it was much better

Thanks for the posts guys! Now should I go with the EVGA GTX 670 FTW, or look elsewhere?

UPDATE:
With some tweaking I managed to be able to get a i7-3770K and a be able to get a Gigabyte 7950, and still be able to get the Crucial M4 SSD for under 1.5K still.

Do you really need hyperthreading? I'd rather have a 670 than a 7950.

What about a GTX 670 vs 7970, I heard the GTX 670's are voltage locked to a point. If I should go with a 7970 which brand should I go with, I was thinking about this one.

Also I'm going to run two monitors at 1080P

I'm actually making a trip down to Microcenter since their deals are exceptionally good. I'm gonna try and get everything under 1k or around it, I actually don't have to get everything I had to in the first place. Gonna shop around try to get some good deals, and see what the guys at Microcenter recommend. This is my build at this point.

i5-3570K
Gigabyte Z77 UD3h
Some type of 1080p monitor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo
Gigbayte 7950
Most likely a new case
1 TB Western Digital

I'm unsure about the monitor and case but its practically written in stone that I'm getting the other parts.

gigabyte boards are pretty solid, or at least they used to be back when i was using them. asus seems to be the best bet these days judging on reviews. the z77 boards they make are particularly good

but why would you want to go with gigabyte for the gpu? go with sapphire or evga. there's no contest really. sapphire has been the go-to brand for ati chipsets for years. very reliable and great performance. evga is a very close second, even better with some chipsets

thats good, but im guessing your final budget is $1500? if so i'll try to build one to see if i can make something on par/better. also what is your current monitor? if its like a 900p LCD which is somewhat decent, dont try to put in a 1080p in your budget. just saying.

Dell UltraSharp U2312HM - $260
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824260055
Great IPS monitor, great price. This one has a glossy panel too. thumb.gif

WD10EZEX - $85
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822236339
That's the first single-platter 1TB drive from WD, significantly faster than all their others.

Rosewill Capstone 650W - $90
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182071
For the same price as the TX650 this is a Gold certified PSU with Super Flower Golden Green internals.

The i7 will not make any difference in gaming.

Lastly, here are some alternatives for the case you might want to consider:
Corsair 500R - $120
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139009

Fractal Design Define R4 - $120
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352021

NZXT Switch 810 - $160
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146089

Bitfenix Shinobi XL - $160

all from newegg, some are cheaper at microcenter, you might want to check that out. i kinda had to put in the Extreme4, because when i add the UD3H the price went up $40 more. your choice, although usually gigabyte has superior build quality. put in the best 670 on the market too. the case, well that depends on you. you can get a Source 210/220 and get the UD3H for approximately the same price. your call. indeed, here is the better build which you should prefer because of the motherboard:

if i were you, i would go for the 2nd build because of the motherboard. some people care about their case being more than decent, so its your call. you would also notice this case has a H60 instead of the H100, its ebcause im not sure if a H100 can fit in this case. if it does, it would be a better call.
