Hey guys, so I am looking into building my own PC. I have gathered somewhat useful components. But, does anyone know any newer components of around the same price and performances. Here is what I am looking to get.

Intel Core i5 3570k

GeForce GTX 660

DDR3 1600MHz RAM (8GB)

Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H Motherboard

1TB Western Digital Caviar Black Hard Drive

600W Corsair CX600 PSU

Or if you own or know of any of the component listed, could you please tell how it runs and how long it will last me.
Thanks in advance.

Plenty of spaces for SSD and big coolers in the future.
