Oh that should do a lot without much a problem, though SWTOR isn't exactly optimised in my experience. Personally I would :

• Get a 560ti instead of the 560
  
• Overclock the 560ti, but even as standard it's the best "bang-for-your-buck" card on the market.
  

 

Any reason you're not going down the Sandy Bridge route though? An i5-2500k will last a while, I'd dare say longer than the i7 you've listed. If you plan to OC the processor, the 2500k OCs far better than the 960. Even if not, again I'd suggest the 2500k, they should be a similar price.

 

What I do at the moment is run my OS and a few select applications off of an SSD and stick everything else on a secondary HD, guessing you're looking at doing this as well.

 

Edit: added one or two extra comments. Hope this helps

that system should be fine but why would you want 2 DVD Burners?

I'm running the 560ti and have no problems with the game at all (oh and i have only an i5 2500).

but like mentioned, add an SSD...it will make a difference on your load times.

On youtube you can watch certain videos from the making of this game, and I dare say that even the dev or designer's pc seemed to be laggier than mine. Edited April 28, 2012 by DiabloDoom

A Pentagon supercomputer built by NASA, equipped with Alien technology stolen by the FBI can´t play this game without lags, freezes and framerate issues.

I'd go for a 2500k and 560TI (and you may as well go 8 GB of RAM with that set up) too.

 

Not entirely sure you'll have no framerate problems though, but they should be minimal.

[ConradLionhart]

SW:TOR should not be using so much resources. Don't use it as a benchmark.

 

You should buy a PC that can play the latest single player games smoothly.

+1 interwebz to you, mon ami ^^

 

@OP:

 

No computer can play this game properly without framerate issues due to the poor game engine.

 

You will minimise issues though with a fast processor (i5 2600K or i7 2600K Sandy Bridge, Socket 1155) and the fastest graphics card you can get (560ti 448, 570, 580, 680 especially on the Nvidia side) and loading the game from a fast SSD and having enough memory (12/16GiB) to comfortably create a RAMDRIVE from which to load SWTOR assets.

 

Hope this helps.

 

P.S. Keep in mind that the 560, 560ti and 560ti 448 are all different cards, with the 560ti 448 being the best.
