Hey guys:D I soon want to buy my computer but I'm still not really sure if this is good:
CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 4x 3.30GHz So.1155 BOX
GFX Card: Gigabyte GV-N560OC-1GI GeForce GTX560 Ti OC - 1GB DDR5-RAM
Case: Lian Li PC-60FN - Midi-Tower Black - ohne Netzteil
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z68P-DS3
Power Supply: BeQuiet Pure Power L7 530Watt / ATX Standard 2.2
HDD: Samsung SpinPoint HD103SI F2 EcoGreen - 1TB - SATA2
RAM: 8 GB DDR3-RAM - 1333MHz - (F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL) G.Skill Ripjaws-Edition - CL9
Monitor: 24 Zoll Samsung SyncMaster S24A350H - LED
DVD Drive: Still don't know wich one...
Btw I still need a fan but I dunno wich one I should buy...
So could you guys tell me if the stuff I'm buying is good or I could buy something else that's cheaper and better.
I want to be able to play Starcraft2, ET, CoD4, Skyrim and all new games on high gfx settings :D
Thanks:)

Yes, it can run ET at stable 76fps.
you don't necessarily need a DVD drive unless you actually watch dvds or listen to cds, unless you really want it you can take it from your old computer if its compatible.
uhm how do i know if my dvd drive is compatible?
(assuming your old optical drive is SATA) check if your new motherboard supports SATA cables, then all you have to do is take it out of your old computer and put it into the new one.
so can i use the old one?
Those fans :XD
EDIT :
have a look at :
Be Quiet! Silent Wings 120mm (expensive but good ratio airflow / noise)
AeroCool V12XT (afordable and decent i guess)
Delta FFB1212EHE (the best airflow but a verry high noise!)
Nexus Real Silent D12SL-12BL (for silence!)
Sharkoon Silent Eagle (good ratio airflow/silence this aint quiet tho)
Scythe Gentle Typhoon D1225 C12B4AP-14 (if you can slow down the rotation, this would be fine)
All other things look good, but myself i would go for 1600MHz DDR3 from corsair or G.skill again.
Edit: HDD Seagate 1TB, 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA3 OR HDD Western Digital 1TB, 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA3
Normal hdd doesn't get near SATA 3 specifications.
SATA 3 is already getting too slow for the upcomming SSD's
if you are from the netherlands have a look on the low budget gaming pc :)
i would change it to something cheaper, sometimes there is a bundle : case + PowerSupply (look at bitfenix, coolermaster, Antec & 80+ PowerSupply) [eventho BeQuiet powerSupply seems to be good]
if you need a Fan : i would go for noctua (they are quiet and almost the best), there is also cheaper Fan doing a good job (have a look at Fan Test)
about the gfx card, keep waiting because new gfx from nvidia are coming (also some ATI just get into the market) so you can save money if you wait till those new are getting out!(maybe you can get a new gfx from AMD if the price go down with those news Nvidia card)
Get a 120hz monitor (you can get an LG, at arround 200 euro, LED also)
are you going to buy those hardware online?? if so give me the link, then i can make you something as cheap as possible (maybe there is some discount, with the same quality/perf hardware)
DVD-Br Samsung SH-S222BB/BEBE 22x/22x black bulk (it's about €20)
