For gaming you don't need a socket 2011 mobo and cpu. But if you have the money why not get the 4930k. If you get a 4770k and a good z87 motherboard you could get the 780ti instead of the 780 with the saved money. I'd also suggest a better cooler like a phanteks or noctua. As for a psu are you planning on SLI in the future?

Okay thanks I will probably do that and I think I'm going with a azza genesis 9000 case do you think that's a good case in general with the option of being able to water cool later on
