I would opt for the Core i5-2500K, unless you run some heavily threaded tasks. Also if you don't plan on overclocking, don't get the K version.

Why not a GTX 680?

I think you should wait for the new CPUs from Intel to come out in a few weeks.

ya i am in no rush to build so i will wait for the new gpu's like you suggested. Also i don't plan on OC. I will mostly just be playing D3, SC2, BF3, CS:GO games like that so is there anything else that is unnecessary that i could save some money on?

thanks for they replies
