This is a copy of my post over on tomshardware, I just thought it'd be nice to get some more feedback from a different crowd ![Smile :) :)](http://forums.modretro.com/smilies/bh_icon_smile.gif)
I'm trying to build a custom desktop that will be able to play games at high settings and allow me to use programs like UDK, Unity, and Lightwave; or other software of the like. I don't have the money to purchase any of the parts currently, but I'm attempting to find all of the pieces I need so I can have a price estimate, and then when I have the money I can just buy them. I have found some parts that I might be able to use (I have no idea though), but if anyone says otherwise I'm more than willing to look at other options.
Some of the parts I've found:
- Asus P9X79 WS motherboard:

- EVGA GeForce 660ti:

- Intel Core i7-3770 Ivy Bridge 3.4Ghz:

- Corsair Vengeance 32gb ram:

- Seagate 4TB sata 6.0Gb/s HDD:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... =N82E168...
And on a side note, I have no idea about cooling and power units, or how big a case should be.
My budget is open-ended as I am expecting to be waiting a while before I can get all the parts.
