Hello guys! Hope you (all) will be doing fine...Well I'm new to the "PC Section" of PG !!! and will be visiting here regularly (if time permits)...Recently I have built a PC with following specs. Well before jumping into the specs I would like to introduce myself over here...My name is Shehryar I graduated back in FALL 2011 got myself into the job arena after two months of my graduation...its been almost six months (mind you practical life is tough quite tough lol 
)...The most passionate thing in my life is GAMING I really love gaming and want to carry on with it till the end (i have been gaming since I was 4 or 5YO...18+ years i guess)...
My most fav console of All Times is PlayStation 2...(yes i still have it...the original model and i still love it)...i have been hanging on to the Sony camp for quite a while...never had a chance of experiencing MS camp...but in the next gen i have plans for it...My fav game genre is Action Adventure games like Uncharted, Open world games like Assassins Creed and Racing games like Need for Speed Most Wanted (i hope the 2012 version of this game will be KICK ASS too..)..im not into RPG's because they are hell lengthy and need a lot of your life so usually i refrain from RPG's or MMO games...I also Love shooters it was Modern Warfare 2 who made me fond of shooters.
Well coming back to the topic...after joining my first job i had in my mind that i'll save some bucks to build my first PC with my own penny !!! i did researched for a few month and finally came to this..
Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5 3570K
Mobo: ASROCK z77 Extreme 4
Memory: 2x4=8GB DDR3 RAM, (1600Mhz), G.SKILL RIP JAWS - Dual Channel
Storage: Western Digital Cavier Black 1TB HDD, 7200Rpm, 64MB cache, SATA3 (6GB/s) + 180GB Intel 520 Series SSD
Case: Bitfinex Shinobi Window
PSU: Xigmatek 600w 80+Bronze
Optical Media: SAMSUNG DVD Writer
Optional Fans: 2 x Xigmatek 120mm fans (Orange Fans with White leds)
I know i know the graphics card is missing but im holding off myself...because I'm waiting for Nvidia's GTX 660 (not released yet...when released it will be around $250)...basically im looking into mid range cards because the whole machine falls into mid range category...so in my mind there are four gpu's
AMD Radeon HD 7870 - $300 price range
AMD Radeon HD 7850 - under $250 price range
Nvidia Geforce GTX 660 Ti - $300 price range
Nvidia Geforce GTX 660 (not released yet) - will be around $250 upon release
So all you enthusiast please suggest me among the four gpu's i have mentioned with logical reasons...you suggestions will be appreciated !!!
and this is how i'll KICKOFF my PC gaming after a long BREAK...but there's a problem that i have very little time for gaming (since i started my job) but i'll make time for it as i have to play titles that i have missed...BF3, MW3, NFS: HP, Skyrim, etc...
Yes i do have a PS3...but shooters, rts & rpg's are better off with legendary keyboard & mouse (device like Kinect or MOVE FAILS in front of em)
