A few things. First off forget about PC part picker. Just get all your components from Direct Canada or it's affiliate Best Direct Canada so you don't pay shipping. Both of those sites offer free shipping

Second you don't need such an expensive cpu heat sink such as the Silver Arrow seeing how that Asus LK doesn't over clock that high. Your just fine with a CM EVO 212.

Always try to get low profile RAM. Look at Best Direct Canada for the Corsair Vengeance low profile RAM or the Crucial RAM on that site.

Without knowing the purpose of your build it's hard to say much other than I'm not sure why you have a board meant for dual cards and that Corsair 600w psu. That psu is manufactured by CWT for Corsair and it's not going to run two of anything. Also what gives with the 3770K over a 3570K ? And what do you plan on using for a graphics card?

And google some reviews about that Azza case. It's not one to be spending money on imo. Google the reviews on that case.
