Better 7870: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Better mobo: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Save money on RAM: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

For that price the Z11 sucks, pay half: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Better HDD now: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Better choice for a PSU: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

The Abyssus is mediocre, get the G400: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

The monitor is a joke: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

For $30 the Sidewinder's a decent choice. It's $50. Get a real board at this point: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

If you want the 3570K, it only makes sense if you get an aftermarket cooler. The 3570K comes in a combo with a solid Xigmatek one that's a steal for $7, so that's a no-brainer.

What games do you have in mind? Since the card has a very good cooler, you'll be able to get a good overclock from it and I'm not sure what kind of impact recording will have on gaming in say, BF3, but I'm sure it will handle it.

I would be recording Minecraft, League of Legends, and maybe some recent popular games such as Dishonored or Borderlands 2
