Best solution
Fill out the new build form in the new build section of the forum if you want advice, and boy do you need advice.
That's a dual channel mobo, so you need 2 or 4 sticks of ram, not 1.
I would recommend a 2x4GB kit (8GB) as it's frequently going for $25-30 after rebate.
You don't want a cheap 450w psu. You want a quality 80+ psu at least bronze rated. A cheapo 450w psu may only put out 300w and it doesn't have the protection circuits of a quality psu and isn't efficient.
If your not overclocking and not using multiple video cards, you don't need a Z77, you should be looking at a less expensive H77 or B75.
