New PC Build - any pointers would be great

[seant]

Hi,

Here is my suggested spec. Primary uses are Gaming and some programming (GPU and CPU). Note I have a ASUS 3gb Radeon 7950 that will be going into the build. Is there any area I should think of improving (faster/more RAM? , upgrade to an i7?). I may want to include a second GPU at some stage, Thanks for any help

A bigger PSU if you want to Crossfire two 7950s.

Are you planning to over clock your CPU?

Thanks,
I would like the option to overclock the cpu (although have never done this before) . I am not sure on using 2x7950 - I would not want to upgrade GPU for a while by which time I would probably switch to a newer Radeon/NVidea card (or pair).

If you do intend on overclocking then go for a Hydro series cooler, the H60i or upwards. So you're just going to be sticking with one GPU? I only suggested what I did as you said you would probably add a second card further down the line, so I just presumed it would be another 7950.
