I would say definitely. Especially if you're going to overclock it.

NVIDIA & EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Video Card Review - Battlefield 3 - Legit Reviews

They have the 670 averaging 70 FPS with ultra settings @ 1920x1080. I guess I assumed you will be gaming on 1920x1080 or 1920x1200.

Also here at HWC:

ASUS GTX 670 DirectCu II TOP Review

That is at 1920x1200 and minimum FPS was 42 with an average of 63.55.

for gaming the i7 is unnecessary, so go for an i5 2500k or 3570k.

Swap the haf 932 for a 912.

Swap the SSD for a vertex 4 128GB

Replace the video card for a gtx670.

???

Profit!!!
