i5 2500k and a GTX 560Ti (I have it, beaaaaaaaast!) or maybe a 6950 2GB, close to the 560Ti performance. Also get a MOBO with about 6VRMS to ollow for overclocking, And finally, get a good heatsink and case. I got a £35 heatsink and a case with alot of ventilation, my computer in case temp sits at room temp, and my processor cores hardly go above 30 degrees (i got a phenom II x6 1090T) even when running processor heavy games or rendering. only problem with ventilation in a case it the amount of dust collection in the fans and such! Let us know what you pick before you buy it incase we notice something bad!

Just remember that your gpu will heat up alot too, so i still recommend going with good ventilation, especially if planning on OC'ing, plus if you change case in future would make a good backup rig case incase something ****s up!

Well my Current case has Space for a big fan at the back. One at the front and 2 on the sides so it's pretty ventilated Smile
