It's a shame that you didn't get that RAM on Black Friday, though. It was $60 at Newegg.

The 2600k with a Z68 board and a GTX 580 graphics card are pretty much what I would recommend for anyone wanting a top of the line gaming system. Gamers simply don't need the Sandy Bridge E technology as it simply doesn't give any extra benefit. The 2600k is still the best CPU on the market in it's price range.

I am going to be helping a friend build almost identical system to yours this weekend. It is gonna kick some ass.
