performance 9/10 -very fast; can handle anything value 6/10 -gtx 580 is expensive and so is the h80 corsair cooler and 850watt power supply usability 7/10 -might not use its full potential and gtx580 can be real loud.

As far as I know 750w is more then enough...

I used to have some mid budget pc's unlike this 1, excited a bit :P

price in Israel : 2400 usd (8400 ils)

in U.S (newegg) : 1800 usd

No worries I'll post some pics :)

7/10 Processor: Overkill, not worth the extra money over the 2500k. Games don't make use of the HT anyways. MB: ok, but I would've chosen the gigabyte ga-z68x-ud3h-b3 or the asrock z68 extreme 3 gen3 for the pcie 3.0 GPU: ok but I would've chosen the MSI ones instead or even 560tis in SLI for almost 100 less and get the same performance Memory: would've chosen the ripjaws x HDD: Samsung f3 or the seagate would've been better. the wd black is louder and more expensive with little gain in performance SSD: ok I guess, would've gotten the crucial M4 instead Case: Personal preference, something like the CM 690 II Advanced suits me better. PSU: Don't like thermaltakes, would've gotten the antec HCG-750 or the corsair tx750m v2 if you wanted modular. The 80+ gold rating isn't really worth it. bronze is good enough for good brands. For cooling, a good air HSF would be good but the h80 is ok too.

6.5/10 mostly because the parts you chose are overpriced.

If it's for gaming then I recommend an i5 2500 instead of an i7 2600k. The i5 2500 is almost as fast as the i7 2600 in games and nothing noticeable to the human eye in gaming performance. The K-series i5 and i7 is a waste of money if you don't overclock. 8GB ismore than enoughRAM for gaming these days. You don't need DDR3-1600 if you don't overclock and DDR3-1333 willdo just fine with an i7 2600k since the Sandybridge CPU's officially support up to DDR3-1333, but if the 1600 is the same price as the 1333 then what the heck get the 1600. Also you don't need liquid cooling for the CPU, a Hyper 212+ will doa goodjob cooling the CPU, the CPU stock cooler will do the job if you don't overclock but won't cool as well and will be louder than a Hyper 212+. A GTX 580 is an excellent choice for a gaming video card. From a performance perspective I rate your hardware a 10/10 and if you chose the i5 2500 instead of the i7 2600k I'd still rate it a 10/10 if it's mainly for gaming.

Your rig is obviously high end. No need for a rate my rig thread.

If you SLI the 580, 750W will be suspect. I'd get as close to 1000W as possible to future proof.
