Would be a good choice. A buddy of mine also got almost the same as me and he is happy too.

The 3570K is all you need in terms of CPU. The Extreme 6 is an excellent board for the price and the GTX 670 rocks!

@ everyone: male, 35, semi-unemployed, home student
@petri - have seen the 3570k in action on a buddy of mine's pc - it ROCKSSSS - graphics wise I'd probably go AMD Radeon 79xx amd CIV 5 is great; My ancient system barely coped though - so went back to civ4. only a few short months and all my problems should Vaporize into thin air.

You claimed to love "trolling" the net and invited interrogation, so I asked you a troll question....

If you knew the rules you'd never let me down but I have to assume that not only do you NOT lift, but u are undoubtedly mad and are most likely in possession of some very rustled jimmies. If you do not find this story cool and do not wish to hear me tell it again we may be involved in a minor altercation after which you will be forced to relocate to a town called Bel Air where people open doors in order to walk dinosaurs.

:mrgreen: thanks for clarifying. Oh and I'm using the broader definition of the word 'troll'.
I am borderline insane and do not know everything, so i suspect this won'tbe the last trap I fall into.
as for real lifting - who knows.
