Hi everyone, I'm building a desktop for the first time ever, I have a good idea about what I want for most of the parts but I'm having trouble picking a motherboard.

As I browsed around for MB's I saw information like Asus - ATX Motherboard 2600/2400/2200/2133MHz (Socket 1155) and GIGABYTE - ATX Motherboard 1600/1333/1066MHz (Socket 1155). In the product description the frequencies are called "system speed", how do I determine what kind of system speed I need? Is this a "the more the better" thing or a compatibility thing where I need to find a specific number depending on other parts?

What I have so far if you guys could give me some suggestions:

CPU: i7-4770 3.5GHz
MB: GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-UD3H
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB x 2
GPU: EVGA GTX 770
HDD: Seagate 1TB
Case: Cooler Master Storm Scout 2
PSU: Rosewill CAPSTONE-750 750W

Would these work well together? Also I don't expect to be doing any SLI, would that make the motherboard an overkill? Thanks for the help!
