No. 560 isn't a high-end GPU.

6k? For that..?

You could literally build it yourself and only pay around 3-4 grand.

For the last time people. Don't waste your hard earned money. MAKE YOUR OWN PC.

The best pc is a razer by far. It is like $2500, and is built for gaming.

No, build it yourself instead of buying their overpriced parts, you could build the equivalent for 1800, so why not spend that 2500 on a built one?

I could build a "Razer" PC myself for less than 1.6k

When you buy a Razer or Alienware, you're buying the fancy logo. Just like abercombie and fitch, or gucci.

I'd put a little more into the hard drives. 1-2tb for storage, 250gb+ for the SSD. Better to get them now than to need them down the road. Especially with the storage drive, you're going to spend a very small amount for more space.

If you're going for 16gb of ram I'd do 2x8gb instead of 4x4. Same thing, more expandable in the future.

Dude, seriously? I'm not trying to be rude or so...I think it's just pathetic how you hunt for praise...
"But i would be happy if someone could say if it is good to play on ".
Of course it is! And I think you know that by yourself.
It's a good pc. 'Nuff said.

I don't think there ever will be an "OP" PC..

Because PCs can almost always get better, even if you have the max hardware for a PC, there will be better stuff the next month, or year.

Moore's law is starting to go obsolete, lol

Anyway I cannot imagine how much this costs, or what you could possibly do to use a tenth of it's power, but alas, if you have the money and don't care about it, go for it.

Well, I would get a better GPU if I could. Maybe a GTX 680 or 670?

Pics of your 64gb of ram or it doesn't exist.
500gb is enough space, I'd go with a tb though.

You mean "64 Gb of ram" in a pc.
Here's mine, it is possible, but costs ( here in Europe ) about 300 euro's ( Just the ram )

( And, if you like my build, please tell me, I put allot of effort in that machine )

32gb would be better... or getting 64gb like i have is insane

this isnt mush space, i would go the 3tb WD version... its like 180-220 but worth it

Overall this is a good pc, BUT i would clasify it as a high end mid range / low end high range gaming pc... will set you up for running most things on max settings with decent fps and performance for the next few years

And "OP" in most cases, and in this one, means "over-powered"

The only thing i see there is the 500GB harddrive and the Graphics card, today, most people eat through the harddrvie space and the 560 is about to be discontinued. go for a 600 series.

- also, i wouldn't bother overclocking for the life of the processor. 3.x should be plenty for today games.

When you are talking on the forum, OP is Original Poster. If you mean something else, type it.

No, its not.

You need two video cards if you intend on PC gaming.

BTW OP means: Original Poster

Two? No, no no. Just one decent card should be good for PC Gaming. Two is usually overkill for everything. Also, OP also means over powered. In a gaming view, it usually means over powered.

Wow. Are you daft? One graphics card is fine for gaming, especially if it's a nVida one. And OP can mean Original Poster OR Over Powered. In gaming sense, it means over powered, typically.

You don't need two video cards. Please go educate yourself. I run games on high settings with one Radeon HD 6870.
