High end gaming spec. Please check. :D

Hey guys, always wanted a high end gaming PC.. and now I have the funds to get one I thought .. why not?!

Heard alot about this site and its great you can change literally anything about your PC to make it exactly how you want it!

So, yeah this is what I came up with. (Only included the important parts )

Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i7-2600 Quad Core (3.40GHz, 8MB Cache) + HD Graphics
Motherboard ASUS® P8Z77-V LX: USB 3.0, SATA 6GBs, ATI®CrossFireX
Memory (RAM) 8GB SAMSUNG DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 4GB)
Graphics Card 1.25GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 570 - 2 DVI, HDMI, DP - 3D Vision Ready
Memory - 1st Hard Disk 1TB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s HDD 7200RPM 32MB CACHE
Power Supply CORSAIR 750W ENTHUSIAST SERIES™ TX750 V2-80 PLUS® BRONZE

Total: £980. I don't mind spending a little more but would like it to be under the £1500 mark.

Please mention any changes/recommendations you might have. I DO plan on upgrading to the 680 a bit later on down the line.

Thanks!

For an extra £200 +- you could add below, Well worth it in my opinion if you can stretch to that. Otherwise id just go for the WD black for 1st drive.

Memory - 1st Hard Disk
120GB INTEL® 320 SERIES SSD, SATA 3 Gb/s (upto 270MB/sR | 130MB/sW)

2nd Hard Disk
2TB WD CAVIAR BLACK WD2002FAEX, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64MB CACHE (7200rpm)
