So basically i am about to buy all my pc parts. I know the gtx 580 is the best but i want to know if it is worth it, because i have more interests then just this pc. So by spending 500 on this card i loose 500 for airsoft and shoes. So basically i was wondering if i should just go for it or buy something like a 570 or a 480. Any opinions are awesome.
 
Are you set on going with nVidia? AMD has the 6950 that has great performance for ~$280.

What games are you planning on playing?

all games. yes i plan on getting battlefield 3. i guess i worded it oddly. price is not an issue for me. i can get the gtx 580 but then i cant get any more supras. what i am asking is if the gtx 580 is more then i need for max setting gaming on upcoming games, because if it was i would like to get just the best that i will use on games like battlefield 3 and diablo 3 at 1080p.
 
Well the GTX 580 is a monster card so it will give you great performance in those games. I don't see a huge need for it since I am pretty sure that a GTX 560 ti should be able to get decent frame rates on those games.

I would say that if you want a GTX 580, get one. I doubt that you need that much power but it would be nice to have.

I would probably recommend the 6950/6970 over the 570/580. Just because of price vs. performance.
