Upgrading PC. Need thoughts!

[Sandman53]

So I have been wanting to upgrade my PC and get rid of these POS ATI cards. I figured at the same time I might as well move into the core i7 category since that's the way processors seem to be moving these days.

Those are the parts I need basically. All the over stuff I already have including and after market fan for the CPU, as well as a full tower.

I just want your opinions on it.

Looks good although you can get the i5 750 and OC it. That way you save some money and get thesame performance.

As for the GTX295, if you can wait till march 26th, the new nVidia cards will be released. The leaked prices are fake from what google tells me. I haven't found other prices, so I can't tell how much it'll set you back.

Problem is my desktop is all but dead at the moment and BSOD's now all the time. I now know its a video card problem simply because that is the error that comes up. Either ATI's drivers are shit or there is a problem with the hardware. I will go for both of them at the moment.

So I need something soon, and I cant wait a month for it. The GTX 295 will last me for at least a few years before needing to be replaced, and at that time nVidia will come out with a new graphic cards and the price of thier next gen cards will drop to the point where i can buy them.

So this is what I am left with at the moment. Also the Core i7 920 also has good overclock-ability from what i read. Most have been able to overclock to nearly 3.8 on air cooling. I probably wont OC unless its necessary.

If your still considering an I7 get the i7 930. Just came up today.
