Hi Everyone,
After a long time planning and educating myself on the boards and gathering the funds, I'm finally pulling the trigger on my first-ever build. I'm hoping to pick up some nice deals on black Friday and wanted to get your feedback ahead of time. I will be booting Mac OS and Windows on this machine. Here's what I'm thinking:

GPU: XFX HD-687A-ZDFC (6870): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150521
CPU: Intel Core i7-2600K: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115070
RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (low profile): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233198
COOLER: Thermalright Venomous X-RT2 "SILENT EDITION": http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...l I also need to get a dvd drive? Thank you!
