hey I'm going to be building a pc and I'd like to know what you guys think about and I'd like to hear any improvements :)
specs:
MOBO: asus sabertooth z77
CPU: intel i5-3570k
GPU: asus gtx 660 ti top
PSU: corsair gx-750W
RAM: corsair vengeance blue 1600 Mhz
HDD: hitachi 7K1000.C 500GB
ODD: LG dvr dl 22x
case: zalman z11 plus
upgrades I'll do: of course overclocking the cpu, I'll be using a mugen 3 dual fan for that, and someday when needed I'll SLI my gtx 660 ti
thanks :)

7950 faster than the gtx 670 when overclocked, can equalize a gtx 680 and surpass it at times.

and faster ram wont change any real world performance, tighter ram settings will make more of a difference.

again: thanks for the help, but I prefer a gtx 670, and I'm fine with the ram I have :)
