I've been reading a lot on this site and tomshardware regarding the best bang for your buck in gaming hardware. It seems like the Intel might be the way to go. I threw these components together, and hoping I can get some advice from some of the guru's out there....if this build will be suffice and work well together.
Want something quiet, and something that will allow me to play future games (MMORPG, FPS) efficiently. Building this to mainly play D3, BF3, and upcoming games. Also want a clean build w/good cable management.
