i would recommend the GTX 570 it is a slightly better card for about $20-30 more.

CPU to an i3-3220.

Case to an Antec One (less) or Fractal Arc Midi (more), although the 912 is good. With an mATX board, I'd get the Core 1000 as well.

That board doesn't give you anything significant over a B75 or H77 board.

1GB of VRAM is still adequate for 1080p, although the 2GB card is not much more expensive. Just an option.

If you do want a graphics upgrade, the 7870 is a better choice than the 570.

There are much better RAM options.

The HGST Deskstar 1TB drive is $60 and a much better deal.
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

There's a cheaper optical drive.

The Rosewill Hive 550 is a better PSU option and still overkill for a 7850. It's not much more and worth it.

No need for an extra case fan.

Thanks this is very helpful but i did not really see a reason to change the RAM and the HDD reviews are saying that it dose not last long and alot of people complaining about it braking after a month + what is the difference with the PSU?

Thanks
