My new gaming PC - what do you think ??

Hi people,
I want to buy the following PC for gaming :

CPU : Intel Quad Core I5 2500K Quad Core 3.3GHZ 1155 6MB + Scythe Mugen 2
MOBO : Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3-B3
CASE : Lancool Midi Tower PC-K62B
POWER : Seasonic PSU 620W Active PFC 80+ Retail
RAM : 2 X 2Gb DDR3 - 1333 KINGSTON(SINGLE STICK) I5/AM3
GRAPHIC CARD : SAPPHIRE HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 PCIE DVI HDMI

Right now I do NOT intend to OC or add a new graphic card, but in the future, instead of buying new PC, i'll want to add a new graphic card and OC instead.

Will this spec work for me in the long term ?

Plus, someone told me Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3-B3 will be better MOBO for adding a 2nd graphic card. Does it worth the extra 50$ ?

Thanks in advance for any comment !!! :)
 
It depends; if you plan to add a 2nd graphics card and the MB offers better peroformance then might be worth it else leave it.

I think the specs are very good and should run games without issues. As for trying to make it future proof; its very difficult considering how fast technology moves, so even adding a second card in the future won't make too much difference.
