First time Computer Builder with Some Help

[buddynugget]

Hello I'm building my very first computer. I have some help from my brother but he is very busy and I'm excited and tearing through stuff and need some help now LOL. I'm looking to see if Video Card will fit in my case I picked out and options for motherboards that'll go with my selections already. I appreciate any helps or tips. I'm quite positive on the processor I picked others can be changed.

Budget - $1300-$1600

Case - NZXT Phantom PHAN ATX Full Tower

Processor - Intel Core i7-2600k Sandy Bridge 3.4Ghz

For gaming and whatnot the 2500K is just as fast.

What parts you don't need, the monitor?

I don't need monitor and its not just for gaming. 2600k I was told would be best choice cause I'm going to school for programming. Only need advice on tower and motherboard as of now. I need to know if video card will fit in this toeer and what motherboard options I have for a full tower thx.

Thx mosox. Now just need someone too suggest a few options for motherboards. Price range for motherboard around $250 or so +/-. Got good bit of wiggle room.
