BMG ftw!!
Component|Make|Price
Processor |Intel Core i5 2500k|11500
Motherboard |MSI Z68A GD55 B3|10300
RAM |2x4GB Gskill RipjawsX 1600MHz|3200
DVD Writer |ASUS 24X Sata Black DVD|1150
PSU |Seasonic SS-750JS|5300
Case |Corsair Carbide 400R|5000
Monitor |DELL ST220M|7900
Keyboard & Mouse |Logitech Media Combo MK200|400
| Total |44750

Stick with HD5670 at this moment as you have said that you are not into too much of high quality gaming. Thus while buying 7xxx card your budget will cross 50K. If you don't want it to cross 50K then change cabinet to NZXT Gamma @ 2.2K

As for CPU cooler, stock cooler will be more than enough for now.

forgot to mention i don't need optical drive as well,
why not an MSI Z68A GD65, is nt dat supposed to be better than 55??
lastly why do u suggest a benq over dell, when compared dell's DCR is way hogher than benq?

In the zone
Core i5 2500k @ 12k
Asus P8Z68 V-Pro @ 14k
Corsair Vengeance 4Gb 1600 Mhz @ 1.6k OR G.Skill RipJawX 4GB 1600 Mhz @ 1.6k
Corsair GS600 @ 4k
NZXT Source 210 Elite White @ 2.4k
Monitor Benq G2222HDL @ 7k
Sapphire HD6950 DiRT 3 Edition 2GB @ 14k
i guess going for a 6950 will be a better option u will get more VRAM and u have chances on unlocking it to 6970 :p and for the same price as GTX 560 Ti it performs better

GD55 is okay for your requirement and cheaper too. But if you want, get the GD65. 2ndly, DCR is not a parameter to judge the quality of a LCD display. It does not have any well defined method for measurement and different manufacturers use different policy to project their high DCR.

BenQ monitors perform same if not better with the similarly or slightly higher priced DELL displays.
