How does this look? Want to run steam games/SC2 on high setting if possible.

I'm content with the radeon 5770 and the CPU, so I don't think I'll be changing those. I have a HDD monitor keyboard and mouse.

Thoughts?

why not get ddr3 1800 since the mobo supports it,

im rockin the ocz's and their boostin.
Also i dont know if you like cable management but a modular psu in that coolermaster might be a good choice. Plus that antec is a little pricey for a 650 non modular, though thats probably why its in the combo..
but nice setup otherwise. :D

What does 1800 ram vs 1600 do?

I don't know much about computers and am trying to figure this stuff out.

Also, there are some reviews that the mobo and CPU are not compatible =\

anyone know if those are just duds or if there are any better mobos for it?

basically a little more cash for some more speed. i read the reviews on it and the manufacturer said

so they are now compatible with that processor.
heres a PSU to check out

What about the PSU attached to this combo?

edit: its not modular either. but after the rebate, its actually cheaper than the first combo i originally posted
 
thats the same psu, didnt know it was in a combo for the 5770, and yes it is modular.
sounds like a winner.
