Hello good people of Tom's, I am just another ignorant sap looking for advice with his build 
Current build can be found HERE(everything is stock except for a Windows 7 upgrade).
I plan on doing the purchasing this upcoming week. The PC will be used exclusively for gaming and some light web browsing, with the ability to stream content being a plus. I'd like to run graphically modded Skyrim and any future demanding titles on high to ultra for at least a year(maybe 2?). I know nothing of overclocking, but I learn rather quickly Was thinking of getting an unlocked processor more as a means to get more power out of it later down the road.
I have a few pieces of hardware in mind, but I am open to being talked out of them.
The ever so popular i5-4670k
And the GeForce GTX 770
What I'm specifically looking for is affirmation that these two are on par with each other and won't bottleneck at any point. Or to be talked out of one or both of these expensive chunks of technology.
I would also like help with PSU, RAM, and MOBO. As my knowledge of how to choose them(especially the latter), is very limited.
Also, am I being unrealistic to try and fit those pieces into my budget?
Let me know if I've left any important information out. Thank you for your time, and thank you in advance for any and all help.
