Getting new comp after 4 years, did some research and heres the parts i came up with
Antec Earthwatts 750W Modular Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 EPS12V Active PFC 80PLUS 135mm Fan
Western Digital 640GB Caviar Green SATA2 3GB/S 64MB Cache 3.5IN Internal Hard Disk Drive HDD
Powercolor Radeon HD 6950 800MHZ 2GB 5.0GHZ DDR5 2XDVI HDMI 2x Mini DP Dual Fan PCI-E Video Card
Coolit Systems Eco CPU Water Cooling System AUTO-REGULATED & Maintenance Free LGA1366/1156/1155/AM3
Crucial CT2KIT51264BA1339 8GB 2X4GB DDR3-1333 CL9 Dual Channel Memory Kit
Fractal Design Define R3 Black ATX Mid Tower Silent Computer Case 2X5.25 8X3.5INT USB *IR-$5*
Intel Core i5 2500K Quad Core Unlocked Processor LGA1155 3.3GHZ Sandy Bridge 6MB
Gigabyte Z68P-DS3 ATX LGA1155 Z68 DDR3 2PCI-E16 2PCI-E1 2PCI CrossFireX SATA3 HDMI Mo *IR-$5*
Total is $1065 before taxes. Thoughts? I will be gaming at 1680 x 1050 resolution, so is that video card unnecessary? Want to try some of the newer games like metro 2033.
Any thoughts on the mobo? Its cheap but it has everything I need
