11. Anything else which you would like to say?

Thanks CommanderShawnzer & The Incinerator

I have decided to increase my budget a little and I am thinking of going with this config

Intel Core i5 3570
Gigabyte H77DS3H
Gskill 8GB RAM F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL
Gigabyte GTX 660Ti or Asus GTX660 TI-DC2 or Asus GTX 670 DC2
WD Caviar Blue 1TB
Corsair CX600V2
Corsair 400R
BenQ GL2450HM
Edifier C2

I am still open to suggestions and I also want to know, Is Corsair CX600V2 good enough for GTX 670 DC2 and is there any performance issues with the ASUS cards?

Thanks

Get i5 3470 ~11.7k and hd7950 @21-22k.It is better than gtx660ti.
CX600V2 is fine,would easily handle gtx670 with the set-up.You can also look for corsair GS600@ 4.4k

^^Just the clocks.Both the processors are fine.i5 3470 has 0.2GHz lower stock clock and also maximum turbo boost frequency is 0.2GHz less.
i5 3470+ hd7950 looks as a better combination than i5 3570+gtx660ti.

Today I will go to other vendor and see if he is able to arrange all the components....

I don't want to take the risk of assembling the PC myself and also the warranty problems, else I would have purchased everything online....
