    Thanks everyone. After doing some digging around I picked up the 2500k & asus p8p67 pro combo at microcenter. I just need to decide on ram speed 1600, 2000, 2133 then I'll be good to go.

    I might be able to go a little higher OC with the heatsink I have. Its a 9700 LED. Do you think the pcie 1.0 would hold back the gtx 570? Games I play: ARMA 2 + Arrowhead, Fallout New Vegas Stalker COP Want to be able to max out Deus Ex Human Revolution when it comes out.
