looks good to me. As of late I'm prefering the EVGA boards though.
i5 is pretty nice, you can OC them pretty well to match the lower i7 (although the i7 still slightly trumps it I think). The board is pretty nice as well. Although, I would ditch the 5770 and try to find a cheap 5850 since you SHOULD be able to get under $700 with that if you bargain hunt well.
It'd be alot easier to squeeze a 5850 sub 700$ if you ditch the socket 1366. That's going to introduce quite a few extra dollars in the mobo and memory department.
Gamming huh? Your gonna use your PC to build womens legs?
Changed my mind, I'm with Rart go for the 1156 socket and save some bucks, thats what i did. I have the i7 860 and the EVGA p55 FTW and I couldn't be happier man. I'm running a 3.8 OC 24/7 with no problems at all.
