Here's my PC that I will build(first time). I want to make sure that I get the best bang for my buck. I'm open to suggestions for parts that are better and better place to buy those specific parts. And since this is my first time, I also want to make sure that each parts are compatible with each other. Here are my components and the links:

i5 3570k-----AMAZON $224.17
EVGA GTX 660-----AMAZON $197.99
RAM Crucial (2x4GB)-----NEWEGG $50.99
Motherboard LGA1155-----AMAZON $103.99
Crossair CX 650Watts-----AMAZON $87.25
WD 1 TB Hard drive 7200RPM-----AMAZON $67.63
LG 12X Blu ray disc combo-----AMAZON $39.99
Windows 8-----AMAZON $89.99
Asus VS247H-P monitor-----AMAZON $167.99
Case NZXT Phantom mid tower-----AMAZON $84.99 (I love this design)
Hyper 212-----AMAZON $24.99

I'm really excited for my PC Build, I'm open for suggestions/advice and I want to make sure that this is the best for quality, price, and compatibility. My budget is around $1100

Thanks

 
use http://pcpartpicker.com/ to show off your build. It checks for compatibility and is easier to edit. Most people do not want to click on each link.

Your mb has a H77 chipset and your CPU is a K meaning it is overclockable. The H77 isn't. You need/want a Z77 board or go to the non-K chip to save a little,

Some people would suggest the new Haswell chips. It may be worth it in your case.

So my current 3570K is not compatible with my LGA1155?

I may be thinking of overclocking in the future once I'm more comfortable, thanks for putting that out
