Ok... before I link to this program, I want to make it clear that I did not make this or help create it or provide anything towards it in anyway. This isn't my program, the author is Zerack of ElitistJerks.
I just saw it and thought that it might prove useful to you, especially since we are at the beginning of Patch 3.3 with plenty new gear to choose from.

To run it:
- unzip it
- run setup.exe
- Go to Start > Programs > DK Optimize
- Enjoy
- That is quoted from Zerack's post here and gives a good overview of what the program is. For any other questions I suggest you go to that link and ask Zerack.Basic Information:
The Death Knight Gear Optimizer is a program written expressely for the purpose of finding the absolute optimal setup of gear, gems, and enchants for any Death Knight of any spec. It functions on a system of weighted stat values in which each stat is assigned a value relative to others. Generally, Attack Power is given a reference value of 1.00 or 100 so that calculations and relative values are easy to understand. This is a commonly used system both for Death Knights and other classes seeking to maximize their performance, but it falls apart when attempting to build entire sets of gear as the most valuable stats (often hit or expertise) have a limit past which they provide no benefit. Loot Rank and Wowhead are great tools, but you can't just cherry pick the best item for each slot. This situation is where the program comes in, combing through selected gear in order to make absolutely sure it picks the best item for each slot in conjunction with an entire set.
Oh and for you paranoids (stop smoking dope) here is the virus scan... Virustotal. MD5: 802dd56d01b6770ff153d2598c957ad8
