Well, you came to an overclocking forum so, non K = MEH to most, Intel boards are MEH, No clue on the quality of the PSU there, look up some reviews on it... 6870 may be a bit long in the tooth for say BF3 at 1080P Ultra.

I thought you sold your first one for a lot of money or something? There is A LOT of advice in those threads if I remember correctly...

EDIT: Yeah, a 100 post thread on a gaming rig. Nothing has come out recently so that advice is still valid.
