Hi,
The build I'm currently thinking of is this:

Motherboard: Asus H87M-E
Processor: Intel Core i5 4670K / 3.4 GHz
Graphics card: MSI N760 TF 2GD5/OC
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport (8Gb)
Power supply: Corsair CX Series Modular CX600M
Hard drive: WD Black WD1002FAEX
SSD: Samsung 840 Series MZ-7TD120
Case: Corsair Carbide Series 200R

I'm not really thinking to overclock or something, so would it be necessary to have another CPU cooler than the one you get from Intel?
 
Solution
for non-OC setup, you dont need custom cooler

and you should not pick 4670K at the first place
go with cheaper i3 4570 or 4430

the rest components are fine

If the model has a 'K' such as the i5 4670'K' it means it' unlocked and should be used for OC'ing. Models that don't have a 'K' shouldn't really be overclocked
