ASROCK is a subcompany of ASUS which is a pretty darn good motherboard company. ASROCK puts out pretty good motherboards here is my setup.

Intel Core i5 2500k
Asrock Z68 EXTREME4 Gen 3
EVGA Nvidia Geforce GTX560Ti FPB
Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 8GB (2x4)
OCZ Vertex 2 90GB SSD (boot/game drive)
Seagate Barracuda 500 GB SATA II
LG 12x Super Multi Blue WH12LS38
CM Storm Sniper
Corsair TX650 PSU
Corsair Hydro H100

I like to stay with highly recommended power supplies corsair, seasonic, pc power and cooling to name a few. The one item you never want to go bad is your power supply just a utter mess. I've heard good and bad things about OCZ memory kingston is good for sure also patriot, and corsair are good options. As far as cooling I really like Zalman if you are looking into aftermarket cooling very affordable and easy to install compared to most after markets. EVGA great costumer support can not go wrong with them. All and all your build looks good just make sure you don't go cheap on the items you need to have with really good quality PSU, CPU, etc., and best of luck man.
