Everything looks great.
But the power supply bothers me a bit
Better go for a higher psu like Corsair TX750 or more.

Only for 1080p Ultra detail gaming purposes what GPU would you guys suggest with i5 2500k- 7950 or GTX 570 ??
Also is there significant difference in price between the two??
SeaSonic SS-750JS 750W 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply
So do some research on net if necessary about that particular PSU I linked above & tell me how's that PSU quality wise for long term operation? I don't wanna buy a crappy PSU as I'm already a victim of crappy Cooler Master PSU
2) Also will this card-
MSI R7950-2PMD3GD5/OC Radeon HD 7950 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Graphic Card
fit in this case & what do you think of the case overall-
NZXT GAMMA Classic Series GAMA-001BK Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
HELP ME OUT GUYS !!!

Even a HD 7870 will trash the GTX 570

Please answer all the questions in my previous post! Thanks
^^Answers to your queries -
- 7950 can beat GTX 570 (unless you meant 670) hands down.
- SS-750JS is a good PSU. I'm using it's bigger brother SS-850AT and it works like a charm.
- NZXT Gamma is a great case, yet I can't confirm if that beast will fit it. Though on Gamma reviews it's said it can hold card longer than 10 inches. Still wait for expert opinions here.

Thank you so much for the answers
Sorry I made a mistake there! I meant comparison of R7950 with GTX670!! Is there huge price difference in Indian markets between those two & is the 670 worth getting only for 1080p gaming purposes at very high detail? Or is 7950 better choice??

There is not much price difference between 670 and 7950 (1K difference approx.) I think it would be better to go with 670 as it has better performance comparatively for gaming. Though if you also have other uses than gaming, you can opt for 7950 too. Both are best cards in this price range.

Yes I have no use other than gaming! No video rendering, etc....& most probably the 3 gig VRAM on 7950 would've been wasted/unused!!!There is not much price difference between 670 and 7950 (1K difference approx.) I think it would be better to go with 670 as it has better performance comparatively for gaming. Though if you also have other uses than gaming, you can opt for 7950 too. Both are best cards in this price range.
So I'm going with this factory OC'd version of MSI GTX 670 2GB card-
MSI N670GTX-PM2D2GD5/OC GeForce GTX 670 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Graphic Card
What do you guys think of that particular card above & what PSU with how much wattage would you guys recommend for my rig for OC'ing both the CPU & GPU??? Is it significantly better than R7950 or just little bit?
One more thing, I noticed that card above (and nvidia in general) reaches around 75 C (& higher while gaming for long hours)! Is such high temperatures normal/ok for such cards? Any thing I should be worried about??
Thanks, appreciate the answers

^^ Gtx 670 beats the 7950 handsdown and offers much better playable framerates enabling higher ingame settings. Its almost close to a 7970. The card you're gonna buy is factory overclocked and should perform better than the reference. Grab it without second thoughts mate.

^^ This comment gave me nerdgasm while reading it
What good quality PSU would you recommend for this 670 card + i5 2500k for OC'ing on the ASRock Pro 4 Mobo??
Also I noticed the benchmarks & reviews saying this card runs above 75C all the time at full load & even higher while gaming for longer hours! Will this pose a problem for the card in the long run?
Thanks

According to that, better get the Gigabyte/Asus/Zotac card instead of MSI if possible. Though if you can't find you can go with MSI too.
For PSU, you can get Seasonic 620W. Though for 24/7 stable overclocking on both card and GPU, you can either go for Seasonic/Corsair 750W/850W model. I use 850W model from Seasonic and it runs fine, though I know it's not even taxed at all with my rig

I think I'll go with that MSI GTX 670 Factory OC'd gfx card since that's relatively a bit cheap for my budget & is a beast gfx card as well! Only problem is it runs high on temp at full load but I'll be installing 5 case fans in the NZXT Gamma case & 2 will be blowing in air directly on top of the card so let's see
Also I'm going with the SeaSonic S12II 620 Bronze 620W PSU-
SeaSonic S12II 620 Bronze 620W ATX12V V2.3 / EPS 12V V2.91 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply
Not planning on SLI/Crossfire ever in the future but will OC both CPU & GPU so I hope that PSU will be good enough.

Well i just found a review regarding Seasonic ss 750js.

I think you have to buy a big case to fit this psu.
And NZXT Gamma can fit your MSI 7950.
+1 Totally agree.

Well GTX 670 is a great choice and requires 400w psu minimum according to this link below
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2 GB Review | techPowerUp
So Seasonic 620 is a good choice otherwise you could go for Corsair TX650.
NZXT Gamma
Overclocking GTX 670 is not easy.

Then get a non oc card if you find and oc it yourself.

Well I'll never do CF/SLI so there will only be 1 gfx card in my rig! So I see no point in getting anything above SeaSonic 620, granted I will OC both the CPU & GPU on ASRock Z77 Pro4 mobo & will install total 5 case fans in the NZXT GammaWell GTX 670 is a great choice and requires 400w psu minimum according to this link below

BTW what makes you say OC'ing GTX 670 is not easy?
I can't
I'm getting everything online from theITwares.com & they have the cheapest components (I checked with my local shops). The MSI GTX 670 Factory OC'd card is the cheapest that I can afford barely in my budget from that site. Prices here locally in shops at WB are sky high & bargaining with them is pointless
