I am in the middle of selecting all the hardware for building my own custom desktop PC. I wanted to ask more experienced people if the stuff I picked would be compatible with one another and if I am making good choices. This is my first time trying to make my own PC by the way. So i may have made a few newbie mistakes in equipment choices.

Motherboard:
ASUS Z87-DELUXE/DUAL Socket 1150 Intel Z87 Chipset
Link


CPU:
Intel Core i7-4770K Quad-Core Desktop Processor 3.5 GHZ 8 MB Cache BX80646I74770K
Link
For specs

GPU:
AMD Radeon HD 7970 OC 3GB GDDR5 DVI-I/HDMI/2x Mini-Displayport PCI-E 3.0 Graphics Card GV-R797OC-3GD
Link

RAM DDR3 32GB:

Im not sure which one would be better or if there is a real difference performance wise.

I just picked it at first glance, I didn't do any real research into it. Is there anything i should be looking for such as compatibility issues and such?

Is there anything i need to look for in a case or is it all just preference?

Thanks in advance, I really appreciate the help.

I think its big enough. I do want to have a bit of a free area for upgrades and such. If i calculated wrong please let me know.

Thanks for the response and advice! I love the look of those sticks. I also added that cooler to my list of things to get. I was thinking of getting windows 7 which is what im used to using on my current computer.
