So I was just curious to ask all of you whether or not this was a decent enough build. I mainly use it for gaming, but I also do videos, editing, rendering, etc...

Case: Thermaltake Level 10 GT
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133188
Motherboard: ASRock Z68 Extreme3
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157271
CPU: Intel i5 Sandy Bridge
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115072
Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099
Graphics: MSI GeForce GTX 670 (x2)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127675
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233196
Hard Drive: Seagate Momentus XT 750GB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148837

As far as upgrading goes, I was considering getting an i7 sandy bridge or ivy birdge and getting another set of Corsair Vengeance to fill my RAM slots and I definitely want another Hard Drive for extra space, preferably 1-2TB, any suggestions?

Thanks everyone.

if you can try to get 16gb ram seeing as you plan to render and video edit, it will come in extremely useful. also i would bet a newer GPU to so further down the track you could add a second graphics card when the games catch up to your GPU. But smart move going with sandy seeing as haswell has hardware blocks

Why is everything bad...?



Yeah getting a new graphics card really isn't in the cards for me. Like I said I have 2 670s currently and I have been able to run any game I've tried on the highest settings. Thank you for your reply.

Sorry, I may have been unclear. This is my current build, I got it a couple years back and got most of the parts on large discounts and things like that. I am curious though, why do you think this is a bad build and why would it not be worth upgrading? I haven't had any issues with my current build, I am just looking to get the best performance possible. Thanks.
