Computer will be primarily for poker, and also some gaming but I'm really not much of a gamer and am not trying to get the sickest graphics ever or anything.

I'm looking into the z68 mobos because they seem enough of what I need and reasonably priced.
Any thought in asus vs asrock vs intel etc?

Also am looking for a lower end graphics card. Maybe in the $150-$200 range
Any suggestions?

Pretty set in the i5 2500k processor

120gb SSD - Samsung or corsair

Do I need a DVD drive? I rarely use mine in my current computer.

For poker you need a good processor (I have I5 myself and it's pretty fast) and a lot of ram. I've 8gb myself.

evga has great customer service and their warranty is better than most. Definitely worth paying a couple of extra $. Their whole nvidia 560 lineup should fit in this price range
