500gb windows/games drive, 1tb storage drive. Hope to get an SSD big enough for windows and WoW, use the 500gb for the rest of the games soon.
Ovbiously you don`t know any thing about PSU.
running that system for half a year will kill that PSU in the end. yes a PSU can handle more watt then what is on the box, BUT not for ever. and that system he posted uses about 950-1000W, meening a 850W PSU will die quickly, running that system.
never go under your system watt. allways go over your system watt

I've used this card with Audiosurf, WoW, Crysis 2 , Portal 2 and several other games, it's rather amazing, sometimes it can be a bit annoying, if im sitting in org, i can hear all the critters moving around, each fire that i pass gets it's own channel as well, it's cool at first, but after a few minutes i go on a crittercide rampage

This was my first ever computer build, made it all by myself about 2 weeks ago and haven't encountered any problems thus far.
Case - CoolerMaster HAF 942 Full tower
Motherboard - Asus Sabertooth p67
PSU - Corsair 750W (modular, real godsend for a first build)
CPU - Intel i5-2500k (3.4 GHz, don't want to overclock, using the intel-supplied cooler)
GPU - GTX 560 Ti (overclocked from 822/1645 MHz to 950/1900 MHz)
RAM - G.Skills Ripjaw 8GB 1866 MHz
HDD - Seagate 500 GB (Didn't plan on downloading a ton of stuff, just games. Still have a laptop for movies/music)
Peripherals
Asus HD HDMI 23" Monitor
Logitech G15 Keyboard
Logitech G500 Mouse
Sound Blaster Arena Headset
I'm quite happy with it, I went from running WoW on all low settings at ~5-20 fps in raids to ultra everything at a constant 60 (everything's pretty now! I never knew!)
If i get some more disposable income I can put towards this, I'd probably get another 560 Ti for SLI, a new PSU (1 kW maybe?) and another HDD (I don't trust SSD's, I've read too many reviews saying they crash after a few weeks or even days)
Also, Cyanotical that thing is freaking beautiful. Props.

Tell me what you think. All constructive criticism and comments are welcome. Benchmark testing with 3dMark Vantage and 3dMark11 this weekend. We'll see what happens.

And why in the world would you buy a 560ti for Physx? An older card like a 260 will run MAX physx more than fine whatsoever. Also, if you say that you bought the 560ti before you knew the 590 was coming out, you were sadly misinformed and/or too much cash to spend.
If you have alot of cash to spend, you should have bought an SSD...
AMD Phenom II x6 1055T + Mugen 2
Asus M4A87TD
A-Data 2x2gb DDR3
AMD Radeon 6870
Corsair VX550W
And all of that is inside Antec 300.
Planning to OC during summer so i get nice stable OC even while its hot. : )
