I'll give it an 8 out of 10.
You lose points for getting an AMD CPU, and not much storage space.

7 out of 10, the CPU isn't the greatest and the GFX card isn't amazing compared to the 670, still nice PC.

Perhaps get some external HDD's ?

Worth the Weight
Definitely better than what most people on this forum have. Not the greatest in storage, or CPU strength, but it's still a great computer and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

7.5/10

This one is like €380 while the 680 is €480, look at the difference Winky Winky
It's slightly overclocked, yet cheaper than the regular version.. profit?

I'd invest in a better motherboard, and CPU instead of a new GPU.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the 570, its still a great card and will play every game fine.
Its your CPU thats dragging the build rating down, not the GPU.

Yea i have been watching the comparison videos on youtube,I will probably go with the 670 like I went for the 570 instead of the 580,Only 5%-10% difference for $100 less lol

Z68 Board, ASRock have the best track record with the Z68 model, but the manufactuer is really up to you.
Then you can either go for an i5 2500k Sandy Bridge, or the slightly better i5 3550k which is about 20euro more expensive.
However overheating is a slight problem for Ivy Bridge CPUs so make sure you have a good CPU cooler.
