I'm building a gaming pc and my budget is a little over $1000.
here are the components:
INTEL Core™ i5-3570
ASUS P8Z77-V LK, LGA1155, Intel® Z77
CORSAIR 8GB (2 x 4GB
EVGA GeForce® GTX 660 SuperClocked 1046MHz
WESTERN DIGITAL 1TB WD Caviar® Black
NZXT Guardian 921 RB Black Mid-Tower Case
COOLER MASTER Silent Pro M2 720W Power Supply

I need help making some adjustments because I'm not going to overclock anything. I don't even know how to use the bios so I need a cheaper motherboard that can still support my components and also recommendations for a better graphics card within the price range of the gtx 660 and a power supply that doesn't die quickly.
thanks.

If you're not looking into overclocking you should go for a H77 motherboard. And for the graphics card I would go for the 660Ti, it costs a bit more but also gives you an extra boost
