i also bought to PSU about 3 years ago and its been working quite well, no problems at all.

 
Gotcha, that makes sense :) I would still go with a 4770k + Z87 motherboard, unless you plan on doing 3/4-way SLI/Crossfire or something. The 2011 socket is really only for people who need insane amounts of RAM and PCIe lanes.

That said, regarding quality/reliability of components, those are all high-quality, good parts :)

yes, i do want to eventually go for a 3 way SLI /Xfire. After building PC's for a while i notice that everything off the vendors QVL doesn't always mean zero problems. Just want to make sure my systems base is decent enough to expand on and that there are no know issues with these parts, together or separately. Thanks for replying.
