    I'd say 3570k + GTX780 would perform really well with any G-sync monitor at 60fps and you don't have to worry about tearing and such at all for at least another Generation.

    Goodluck.
    You talk about not spending a lot of money yet we see a 780 and a gsync monitor...
    What do you call spending a lot of money i am wondering then, triple SLI and a 4k monitor?

    I can see the difference between 60 and 80 easily. It's around 90 that it skill feels the same.

    Thank you all for your replies, now I have a better idea of what I'll need to reach 120fps (or at least to get close to that framerate).
    To answer a question in the first page of the thread, "Why would I want 120fps?", it's mainly because of this:
    http://www.blurbusters.com/zero-motion-blur/video/
    Strobing the backlights of a 120hz (or faster) 3D LCD screen, the movement becomes as fluid as on you could see on a CRT screen.
    Quoting a description from their website on how strobing works:
    The backlight is turned off while waiting for pixel transitions (unseen by human eyes), and the backlight is strobed only on fully-refreshed LCD frames (seen by human eyes). The strobes can be shorter than pixel transitions, breaking the pixel transition speed barrier! In addition, it eliminates the sample-and-hold effect.

    Here are some FAQ: http://www.blurbusters.com/zero-motion-blur/lightboost-faq/

    And here some comparison shots between a 60hz monitor, a 120hz monitor and a strobed 120hz monitor: http://www.blurbusters.com/faq/60vs120vslb/

    Since I switched to LCD monitors some years ago due to CRT straining too much my eyes, I always missed CRT's ability to show fluid motion without stuttering or blurring: this strobing is the solution. The last time I saw something similar, it was on my old CRT monitor 1280x1080.

    If you decide to try it, here you can find some tests to run: http://www.testufo.com/
