Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H-WB $189.00
ASUS GTX 660 Ti $309
G Skill 16G(4x4G) DDR3 1600Mhz $95.00
SanDisk Extreme SSD 120 GB SATA 6.0 $80

Track IR 5
Saitek Pedals
Thrustmaster TFlight HotasX

So far pretty happy with this setup. CLOD runs smoothly. I haven't tried to record framerates because I'd like to get a feel of how the game performs first without getting caught up in numbers.

Bonus - this setup with the exception of bluetooth and bluray works great as a Hackintosh too. I've got Windows 7 installed on the SSD and OSX on the HD.
