I'm building a computer for gaming (Primarily Lol and Wildstar when it comes out) and wanted to make sure all these components work together and make sure that you all don't know of better parts for less that i could get or change things up for the same price.

Right now i'm looking at this

GPU- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

ram- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

mobo- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

cpu- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

cpu cooler- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

As far as i can tell they should all work together, but i know that numbers and such have to be done correctly, and honestly i don't know how to do that. I play games, not build machines :S I also haven't followed hardware in a few years, so i don't know a ton about whats good anymore, i was just going off of price and reviews. If you all could help me with prices vs build and components used i would appreciate it. I'm trying to stay under 900 as i don't want to piss the wife off. Any help is appreciated!

edit- i do have a power supply still. I believe it's 850, so i think that would be enough to run it, but again i honestly don't know how to check all that out.
edit2- sorry i'm pretty new at all this and keep forgetting stuff. I also have 2 hdd, decent size running at 10k rpm so i'm not worried about getting an ssd for the time being.

You need get the i5 4670K for the ASUS Z87-A LGA 1150. And you don't post what PSU it is because the LGA 1150 is very picky for the PSU, when you use the lga1150 system you are better to buy the haswell compatible certified one, here is more info: http://techreport.com/review/24897/the-big-haswell-psu-... and the gtx770 requires 42A on the 12V rails and a 600W PSU minimum.

Also I add other ram is same brand 8GB but it has cl8 timing and blue color. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
If you don't like it then forget about it. But just make sure the PSU is haswell compatible.
