Okay so Ive been searching and found this wish list on new egg, and thought it was good

I need my PC for gaming on high like COD games, Mohh, BFBC2 without a hassle
I need your guys opinion on this, Idk about the power supply tho
Tell me what you guys think

Edit: I have speakers, monitor, mouse and keyboard
 
Looking great! The only thing I would change is a matter of opinion and that is the case. As said that's a matter opinion.

If you have the money, go for a X6...

Otherwise, looks nice!
 
I don't see the problem with that mobo...? It will xfire two 6870's with minimal loss in power. May not overclock as well, but it's a good board.

That PSU is great, no worries there. XFX has some of the best units on the market.

I'd change the case if I were you, though. The 300 has decent airflow, but its cable management is almost nonexistant. The HAF 912 is a MUCH better case and is the same price right now:

oh oops, thought it was a 790 chipset :o never mind then, go ahead and stick with the one you have :good:
 
It IS a 790 chipset. It's 790X, which is 790GX without the IGP, so 8x/8x crossfire. It'll lose a small amount of performance with two 6870's, but you'll only really be able to see it in benchmarks.
