Is this a good build around 1700 ish

For the CPU, get the i5 3570k. For gaming you wont need an i7 or its hyper-threads.

GTX670 is a good card, no issues.

Seasonic is a notable PSU maker, 750W is enough to SLI later and the 80+ gold is a big benefit.

Motherboard, of the 3 you listed id go with the AsRock Z77 Extreme6.

Those two RAM kits are essentially identical (8Gb of 1600Mhz CL9 latency). Get whichever one
looks better in your case. Make sure itl fit under the CPU cooler.

Note: Hard Drive capacity should never be called memory, that term refers to RAM.
If that drive has a 64MB cache, it'l be fine. If not get the Seagate Barracuda 1Tb 7200RPM 64MB cache drive.

Crucial M4 128Gb SSD is a fan favourite no problem there.

The HAF-X is an awesome case, you wont be disappointed in its abilities.

Between the 3 of those CPU heatsinks, the V6 GT and the Hyper 212 EVO are the good options. the V6 GT has good reviews, though it more expensive than the still good 212 EVO.

Any $20 optical drive will do nowadays unless you have to use BLU Ray or burning discs is a bit part of the machines job.

Dont see any issues with those components working together (except maybe the heatsink and the RAM fitting, may have to move the RAM to slots further away).

ok thank you i was also looking into water cooling i know its not needed but i like the looks do you think that that is a good idea? also is the v6gt good fan for overclocking?
i saw some people saying that the extreme6 is pretty simmmilar to the extreme 4 is there anything on the 6 that is a benifit.
p.s. thanks for the heads up on the memory thing i am new to all of this, its my first build  

If your not overclocking to a large degree, water cooling isnt needed unless you want a silent rig (even that's iffy because they still need fans). But if you think the looks and temps of a water cooler is worth it, go ahead, its your build. Just don't compromise elsewhere to get it.

The V6 GT review I found says its pretty good for temperatures, so you can overclock quite happily on it. It may obstruct your RAM slots though.

They are pretty similar from what I can tell. The Extreme 9 has an extra PCI-E slot, some included goodies like a USB3 5.25" bay (wont need on the HAF-X) and a native displayport output (fairly useless in my opinion). If you want to save some cash, going down to the Extreme4 wont have any big repercussions.

ok water cooling is out just a thought but anyways are the sabertooth and maximus v any good or would you stick with the extreme 4 cause ive heard that the asus bios and stuff was alot more user friendly also but im sure i can figure things out but what ever

Both are true enthusiast motherboards, if you can afford to go that high (without compromising), do it. Of the two I'd get the Z77 Sabertooth. Looks amazing and is ATX size while the Maximus V Gene is a Micro ATX. You'v got a case that'l fit Extended ATX so no point putting in a small motherboard.

ya i didnt notice the smaller mother board but between all of the boards ive listed which woukd you chose and my last question what is a good 2tb hdd and should i get 128gb or 256 ssd thanks for your patience and time  

The Sabertooth if you have the cash, if you want to save a bit, the AsRock Extreme4. As for good 2Tb HDD, I'm a sucker for the Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 64MB range.

When it comes to SSD's, get as much as you can afford. A 128Gb will hold your OS, core programs and some games no problem with some management. A 256Gb will hold all your programs and games without issue (unless you have a ton of games of Skyrim size). There is a tiny bonus in performance as you go up in capacity (usually), but when picking capacity's its price that's going dictate how much.

Just be careful you dont accidentally fill it up with with files and such, they receive no realistic improvement over HDD and it would take a while to transfer them all to the HDD.

64Gb - $65
128Gb - $125
256Gb - $200
512Gb - $420

ok sounds good i think im going to get the sabertooth and the hdd u metioned and ill see if i can squeeze the 256gb ssd in. thank you very much for your time and help.

this is my final list. i think its time for the final qrituqe if you have any recomindations for parts that are as good for lower price because i am over budget by just a little. also if you have recomindations on anything or tips for a new builder that would also be appreciated.  

So is this a good build???

Why mess with a 256GB SSD? Try a 512GB SSD. If your going to do it then go big.

so would you not have anyy hdd and have one ssd? cause i think i need like 1-1.5 tb of storage. what are the differences between the sabertooth z77 and the extreme 4 cause i know the pricing but is there substantial benifits of the sabertooth.

No real benefit other than the Sabertooth has larger heat sinks and the board is a bit larger size wise.
