this heatsink is for that MOBO...http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099

everything else looks fine

That system is very unbalanced. Save some money and get a socket 1155 motherboard and an i5 3570(in gaming your not going to notice a difference between the 3820 and the 3570) and get a better graphics card.

nevermind

Those components will work just fine together. What is the purpose of the build? What type of PSU do you have (make/model)?

bignastyid :

i am buying off amazon so do you think you could link me to these appropriate items?

Garzi · Apr 11, 2013

ubercake :

i just want to play games on the pc and for the occasional web browse also at the moment i will not find out till tomorrow because i am getting a tower which has older and worse components in it so i dont really know but if not enough is supported i may have to buy my own one.

Garzi :

If you want to game, the minimum video card I'd recommend is a GTX 660 or Radeon 7850. A 7750 will be a disappointment from a gaming standpoint.

Here are the amazon links:

Intel i5-3570K
Asus P8Z77-V LK
Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB
EVGA GTX660

The motherboard is SLI-ready so you can alway pick up another 660 if you need to beef up your graphics performance.
You have the other components already? What kind of power supply?

That's a solid PSU that will provide enough power for future SLI with two 660s.

Ok so here is the final product

fan: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus - CPU Cooler with 4 Direct Contact Heat Pipes (RR-B10-212P-G1)

Hard drive:Seagate Barracuda 2 TB HDD SATA 6 Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive ST2000DM001

MotherBoard:Asus P8Z77-V LK Intel Z77 DDR3 LGA 1155 Motherboards

Ram: Corsair Vengeance Blue 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory (CML8GX3M2A1600C9B)

Processor:Intel Core i5-3570K Quad-Core Processor 3.4 GHz 4 Core LGA 1155 - BX80637I53570K

Video Card:Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD 7850 2 GB GDDR5 DVI-I/HDMI/2x mini-Displayport PCI-Express 3.0 Graphic Card GV-R785OC-2GD

PSU:Corsair Enthusiast Series 650-Watt 80 Plus Bronze Certified Power Supply Compatible with Core i3, i5, i7 and platforms - TX650

Tower:Cooler Master HAF 912 Mid Tower Computer Case with High Airflow RC-912-KKN1-AMZ or Raidmax Case Cases ATX-248NWU
Which tower do you think would be better?

ubercake · Apr 12, 2013

I'd get the HAF 912 because the cutout in the motherboard tray behind the CPU becomes invaluable when mounting or swapping out CPU coolers with backplates. Additionally, the cooling potential of that case is great (very open/airy design=H.igh A.ir F.low=HAF). It also fits the Hyper 212 plus just fine. I use both as part of my DAW's configuration.
