Rough Spec list , any thoughts ?

Intel 3rd Generation Core i7-3770K CPU (4 x 3.50GHz, Ivy Bridge, Socket 1155, 8Mb L3 Cache, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0)
Corsair 8GB 1600MHz CL9 DDR3 Vengeance Memory Two Module Kit x 2
ASUS Sabertooth X79 LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB
Western Digital Caviar Black 1 TB SATA III
EVGA GeForce GTX670 FTW 2048MB GDDR5 256bit,

This should be a good start ?

I have to say that you have forgotten the most important component of a desktop for image editing: a monitor.

Someone already mentioned it and I will repeat: focus on the monitor first, choose the one that fits your budget and needs. Use whatever is left for the pc.
