I like the fact that I could pick it up later, same with the video card, would like to spend 1200 US dollars or less and upgrade again when 580 and ivy bridge drop in price. would 2 570 gpu trump 580? would think so.

Should be fine depending on your power supply. Only the i5 if you're going to overclock (very easy though).
