New build

[Slithster]

Hey all,

I am looking to start a new build on a budget. Basically, I would like to play Rift with everything maxed at 1080 resolution. What I came up with is below, with plans to add a second video card in the near future. I am still shopping for a case. Any thoughts?

Intel Core i7-2600K 3.4GHz LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor

RAM
Corsair Dominator 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)

Video Card
MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) N560GTX-TI Twin Frozr II/OC Video Card

OS HD
OCZ Vertex 2 OCZSSD2-2VTX100G 2.5" MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Second HD
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

Blu-Ray Drive
LITE-ON Black 4X Blu-ray Reader SATA Model iHOS104-06

Monitor
Planar PX2710MW 27" Full HD HDMI WideScreen LCD Monitor w/Speakers

OS
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit 1-Pack for System Builders


Thanks!

I think you should be good. I play Rift at 1920x1200 with full AA on a GTX470.

Just a heads up.
A 2600K won't fit in the R3Formula.

UGH. That's what I was afraid of. What motherboard should I be considering? I admit to being confused by the whole Sandy Bridge debacle.

Nevermind. I see that I need a 1155 socket board. Anyone, know if there are Asus in the channel yet? Everywhere I check are still backordered.
