Made a thread a while ago asking for recommendations for a computer upgrade (basically looking to run current games at max, like Witcher 2 and Battlefield 3, and be prepared for Mass Effect 3, Bioshock Infinite, etc.)

That's the old thread, but regardless these are the components:
Already purchased the RAM:
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231428
Going to be buying these soon:
ASUS P8Z68-V LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131729
XFX HD-695X-CNDC Radeon HD 6950 2GB 256-bit GDDR5
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150550
Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost)

Any final feedback would be greatly appreciated. I currently have a 600W PSU. I surmise that it's enough to handle this machine. Thanks.
