The processor is actually a re branded athlon with a higher clock rate. It lacks the l3 cache of a true phenom. If building amd you really should be looking at an am3+ board to have the option to upgrade to bulldozer.I'd recommend this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157262&Tpk=asrock%20970. As far as the gpu the 560 will outperform the 550ti by a rather large margin. You could also look at a 6850/6870.

Yeah, even if you end up going with the Phenom II, its price will fall by alot when bulldozer comes out.

I've also heard that the radeon 6850/70 are better value than the 560ti. Look into that.
