If it's performance/system longevity you want then that's the way to go. And don't waste your time with the 2600k... 2500k all the way! I hardly see 2mb L3 Cache and hyperthreading worth $100. This along with a 580 and you'll be good for several years.

Most smart builders wouldnt waste all there money on a machine like what you say as its more than needed and too much money. I can build a system for under $500 that would play CoD fine. Your idea is to spend >$1000 to get the same gameplay.
