You can consider this spec, you can overclock the CPU but not much benefit for gaming. 2 GTX 670 would max any game for sure but for 1 monitor would be a bit overkill. You could get a better case.

Ok, this is what I would suggest. However, for the cpu cooler, I would strongly suggest you ring PCS and ask them to source a Noctua dh-14. Then they will find one and hopefully buy it for you (you will have to pay of course!). I think they do that anyway!

Note that for gaming in general if you overclock you won't really see any difference.

No, you shouldnt OC the gpu. You can void your warranty and may become unstable. The i7 3930k is more suitable for CPU intensive task (video editing, rendering) for gaming the i5-3550 would suffice and the i7-3770k OC is already a lot.

Shadowgaming where you talking about overclocking the GPU or just asking if overclocking the CPU would improve the GPU's performance?

Check this benchmark on battlefield 3 with 1, 2 and 3 GTX 670s:

battlefield 3.png

Guru3d:
30-40 FPS average yet very playable

40-60 FPS good gameplay

>60 FPS best possible gameplay
