I honestly can't find anything wrong with that build, but is there a specific reason why you're getting a micro ATX board for an ATX case? Not that it won't fit, I'm just curious.

I didn't think of that. But does it matter what case I have? And if so, what case do you recommend?

i5-4440 or i5-4430 will work just as well as the i5-4670, so save some money on one of those. Remove the CPU cooler - the stock cooler is fine if you're not overclocking. 1600MHz RAM isn't necessary - just find the cheapest 2x4GB DDR3-1333 RAM
 


The case doesn't really matter that much, it's more about the looks. Of course if you want to do custom water cooling with quad SLI and multiple radiators you'll want to get something like the Corsair 900D, but I somehow get the feeling you're not going to do that :)
 


Well if you value silent operation you shouldn't even consider using the stock cooler. Also, the other CPUs may work as well, but they're not as fast. The part about RAM is true though, but 1600 MHz never hurts if it's not overly expensive.

This build is for gaming, and the user will see no noticeable difference between the i5-4670 and the i5-4440 or i5-4430. 1600 MHz doesn't hurt, but why waste money? I have no experience with the Intel stock coolers, so I'm not sure how loud they are. I've never heard any complaints about them though,
 


Well he won't see a big difference now, but higher clocks never hurt when it comes to 'future proofing'.

The Intel stock coolers are not as horrible as the AMD ones, but still too loud in my opinion. It really depends on what you want from your PC.
