I agree with Bigcyco about the 3570k, but I think the motherboard is fine. Personally I would also get a normal air cooler, and sink that cash in to getting a keyboard and mouse that won't fall apart if you look at it wrong.

edit: lol, he dropped his 3570k suggestion, but I still think it's a better choice.
 
Lol yeah i dropped my suggestions as i have to go to work and have no time to explain them. :)

 
Just personal preference i prefer Asus and gigabyte.The Z77 Extreme4 can be purchased for as little as $130. Taking a look at the current availability of Intel Z77 motherboards at popular retailers confirms that this motherboard is an absolute bargain and I would say – if you are on a tight budget then give this board some consideration. The only negative I have for this motherboard is that it slips outside of typical ATX specifications. It’s 3cm thinner than a standard ATX motherboard and as a result may lack secure mounting on the far side since this isn’t a common size, which also means you should be very careful when plugging in the 24-pin ATX motherboard power – as the motherboard may flex.
