  Looks like a perfectly good system to me. Yes the Gigabyte x58 motherboard is a great recommendation.

  I would not use an LED monitor for preview at this time, they are still overly blue in my opinion to get any type of color accuracy, although I have not seen that particular model.

  My recommendation would be getting a broadcast monitor. Look at JVC / Panasonic.)
