[Build Ready] Upgrading my rig to Ivybridge!
Author Summary
zetka is in Build Ready
Post Body

Right, my fourth and hopefully final revision. I think I have what I need!

The GPU and PSU are what I already own so I won't be changing those, if anyone could pass me their judgement on the below components I would really appreciate it! Hey all! I think I'm finally sorted with my upgrade (I already have the GFX card and PSU below), could anyone just go over this and give me their words of wisdom? If you think there should be some changes I'd rather the price went down rather than up! This is pushing limits already ;)
