While the CPU isn't quite as good as the i7-870 it doesn't matter too much in games. I've changed the RAM to 4GB because nobody needs more than 4GB of RAM for gaming and you can always add more at a later point for a cheaper price if you start doing other things that need it. The Coolit Eco A.L.C. cooler isn't needed since you're not overclocking and the cheap soundcard isn't really much of an improvement over the onboard HD sound. I changed the wireless card to the PCI type because it's better to use up the older ports on the motherboard and leave the PCI-E ones open for new devices.

With the savings made from these changes I've upgraded the graphics card to the HD6870 which is a much better graphics card that can play all of the newly released titles on high settings, scales well in crossfire and can support up to 3 monitors. I've upgraded the hard disk to a caviar green that's not only larger in size but also performs better which will speed up the system overall. I've upgraded the warranty to silver so that if anything fails within the first year (when most problems occur if they're going to) you'll be covered for repairs. I've also upgraded the power supply to a TX750 which will be able to support a second graphics card and other devices. The motherboard selected supports Crossfire, USB 3.0 and SATA 6.0/GBS which means that it's ready for the future of new high speed devices.

The fast track delivery service wasn't available when I tried to put it into the build, it looks like the case and some other components can't be chosen for it. I would recommend going with either a Phenom II x4 970 build like the one I posted above or an i5 760 build because you can get more out of your budget by not overspending on the CPU.

what graphics card will go good, with the ati one you put in your build?

The setup Phoenix has put togeather for you looks great. The 6870 is basically a lesser 5870 with moderate tweaks and improvements. It beats the 5770 in the original spec.
