Config is good. And yes 560GTX TI will go great with it. But You can also check out MSI HD6950 TF III Version.

That Ram will run without any probs on the Motherboard you selected so no worries. It will Run at 1333 MHz though. Or You can buy Cosair Value Ram which run at 1333 Mhz

i5-2400 will coost cost aeound 9k. Its better to go with i5-2400 and save the remaining 0.8k of the i5-2500. The difference between these two processors is just a mere 200MHz. And it doesnt make sense to spend 0.8k more for it.
And instead of DH67BL-B3 loook for DH67VR-B3. Both have the same specs and the later costs only 4.5k. So, you save another 0.8k here. So, use that total 1.6k and get a good cabinet/PSU/CPU Cooler.
And yes, get Corsair Value RAM 4GB DDR3 1333MHz @ 1.2k. If GSkill RipJaws 1600MHz is available for this price then grab it. But spending more than 1.2k for RAM here is just a waste as H67 boards at max. Support 1333MHz RAM, so in anyways 1600MHz will downgrade to 1333MHz.

@OP, DH67VR has only 2 sata ports.. DH67BL has 6 sata ports... Get whichever suits ur requirements...

Better go with DH67BL as said by Megamind.Because its has 6 sata ports.With 6 sata ports you can add 6 ODD/HDD.So its better value for money.

Thanks for the money saving tips :)

Thanks again Megamind. Ya I will go for the DH67BL..it will make it future proof and also some expansion slots available.

Going for it. Thanks
2 Ports is too Few. One will go for HDD and one for DVD and bam No more expansion :eek:

Thanks will opt for the same.

Will be placing the order soon
