Asus GTX 570 DCUII, do not question, read reviews, you shall not regret it.

You're getting a soundcard and a G35.....

Swap the G35 for AD700s

Swap the G15 for a Filco (blackwidow if you can't afford Filco)

Asus make good Mobos

swap the Xonar DG for the DX

As for GFX cards, get an Asus or MSI 470 GTX OR get a 460 and pair it with a SSD

The xonar DG and MOBO have already been purchased, the g35 and g15 are old and will be upgraded in the near future.

Iv'e read a few reviews on the gigabyte 570 geforce 1230overclocked and 6950 2gig cards aswel as msi and 460's. Will definately be narrowing my decision down to those 2 and i havent really had much experience of other website users being fans of asus cards :s

Agreed apart from the graphics cards. Get a 570 or 560, newer tech.
