Here's my build, I want a new mobo that will be able to use the new haswell CPU coming out soon. Will there be anything else I need to change?

The ivory bridge mb and CPU have 1155 pins. The new haswell CPU have 1150 pins. You can't use ib or haswell CPU in each other mb do to the five missing pins. On your build you pick out old and slow ram. For the same price make sure it 1600 speed ram at 1.5 v.

First off, why is there DDR3-1066 in there? Get some -1600, and for less.
You'll want a 4670K... I'm not sure which board will be best, and I'll probably wait a week or so to see some of the reviews. My guess will be that it stays much the same as current gen, with my recommendations being a GA-Z87X-D3H or Z87 Extreme4, with Asus being mildly overpriced.
You can get that GPU for $25 less elsewhere.

Haswell is will use a different socket (LGA1150) so IvyBrisge (LGA1155) will not work.
If you can, wait until Haswell comes out before buying parts.
