Triple Check My Build

[dredclaw]

Hey guys,

Planning to build my first desktop and I have spent lots of time searching for parts, good prices, compatibility and quality.

Hoping that a few people could confirm this will all work together, that there is nothing that is terribly wrong or if there could be any easy things to shave the price down.

Right now, I'm planning to buy the parts of 2 different online stores, who will ship to Canada.

Anyone who knows anything about Direct Canada, please post your opinions.

It makes no sense to pair a Z77 motherboard with a 2500K - get the 3570K, you lose PCI Gen 3 and a few other features.

Otherwise everything else looks good.
