Pretty great build.  Not super high end but definitely great for most games.  You should be pretty happy with that build.  It's obvious that you've done homework with it.  Good luck!

Good overall build:)

Life is pain. Anyone who says any different is either selling something or the government.

What was your total budget mate?

For single 1080p I would boost to 660ti or 7870 at least.

Apart from that, very good stuff. I mean the 660 would be fine but I think you would appreciate the boost.

Is this the real life? Or is this just fantasy?

You can go with a cheaper motherboard/case/weaker psu/dvd drive?

 

What's your budget?

Are you doing any rendering/editing? If not and just gaming, the 7870 would be a better route.

That is a quite solid nice looking build. Great setup for the price, though, if you can stretch your budget a bit. A 660ti that is on sale (quite a few of them are) would improve your gaming experience. For a budget, that is the only thing I would change, and maybe a different heat sink or at least a noctua fan to replace the cooler master...definitely a good choice of parts.

Good luck with your build!
