Help with a new pc :(

[SpLiTNuTz]

Hey all, I've been looking at getting a new pc for about £1000 give or take. I no longer have a Mac! .
Ive built a pc on overclockers.co.uk but I'd like the intake of all you other geeks hehe;

Subtotal £829.06
£994.87 inc VAT

Specification

Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz Quad Core Processor
Stage 2: Overclock of CPU - 15% Overclock (Processor speed x1.15)
Corsair Hydro H60 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
Asus P67 Sabertooth Intel P67 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard
Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB 1600MHz CAS9 Memory Kit
OcUK GeForce GTX 560 1024MB GDDR5 Graphics Card
Seagate Barracude 1TB SATA 6Gb/s HDD
OcUK 22x DVD±RW SATA ReWriter (Black)
Asus Xonar DG 5.1 PCI Sound Card with built in Headphone AMP
OCZ ZS Series 750W PSU
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
Fully Cable Managed

My question is would I be able to run quake 2 ( apparently the most demanding game atm ) on full graphics?

Cheers all, look forward to your geeky comments

Did you buy all these parts yet? If not there a few I would change out.

I went to their site I came up with a build just under £900. Are they assembling/overclocking this for you? This is probably where some of the premium came from on top of more expensive items like that Sabertooth that isn't worthwhile (ASUS P67 line has had lots of issues so stay away). Click the picture for the parts I think you should get if you haven't already. If you are really interested in getting feedback please answer these questions from the sticky.

Hey thank you for your reply, I haven't bought anything yet. I've just had a look at the sticky and I'll post a reply once I'm done

If you are waiting that long please come back within 1 or 2 weeks of wanting to order your parts. Anything we come up with for you now will not be recommended. AMD and Nvidia are likely to have all new cards by then. AMD is releasing a new CPU line 2 weeks from now and Intel is bringing out SB-E. Just way too much stuff coming to even think about what you could possibly want by then is all.
