P67 Pro3 has a shorter warranty, less phases, less SATA ports, lacks USB3 header and a shittier USB3 chipset. If you have no clue what I'm talking about than just get the Asrock P67 Pro3 because you'll just be throwing money away by getting a $150 P8P67.

If you're buying from Newegg. Get the XFX Radeon HD6950 instead if you prefer AMD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150523 Otherwise just get a GTX 560 Ti: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125401

Get the Antec Neo Eco 520c instead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371030

SIck!! thanks and will all this fit into my HAF 912, people were telling me some of the longer GPU's won't fit. Also what capabilities will I have with this config, such as streaming and FPS at 1080p.

HAF912 can accommodate 15" long cards, GTX 560 Ti is only 9". The configuration will be capable of playing most games on reasonably high settings at 1080p.

It's a optical drive.. who cares. Waste money on other components before something that isn't even used by most people.
