    Building a new computer - how does this look?

    The AMD 7870 & 7850 are launching on early March and fit in the 570 price range. If you don't have to buy the system right now, I would wait before getting a GTX 570.

    1080 mkv files, which filesize is easiest for the cpu to play?

    Try CoreAVC, it's one of the fastest H264 software decoders: http://corecodec.com/products/coreavc It worked quite well with my old system.
