thanks man this build is cheaper by about $200 bucks in the other on i was thinking of (had a weaker card, case and heat sink price was higher than the one on the page)

i could make $15 cheaper by buying the non k version of the 3570k

You are right. As you you stated you won't be ocing so no 'k' model is way to go.

and another $60 cheaper because i already have an ssd with windows 7 ultimate 32 bit on it

In pc from that link there is 8GB of ram which means that you would need 64bit windows, because 32 bit doesn't "see" more than 4GB.

I have the cd of 64 bit also and I chose a cheaper mobo because the mobo is a p-68 or something which can't recognize IB CPUs and can oc. The mobo I found is a ASRock H77 Pro4/MVP which is $10 or $15 cheaper then the mobo he has and the mobo is meant for IB CPUs and can't oc. And my dad found his old 800w psu in his closet. Idk wat brand it is but it should be ok to bring to the new system. So this is almost $100 under my budget

These are all quality PSUs : Antec, Seasonic, XFX, Corsair , PC Power and Cooling.
Lets hope your old one in one of these. But be careful, if it's faulty it may fry your brand new system. Seeing as were ready to go 1500$ why not buy new PSU, it won't cost more 100$, even less. And if you're prone to saving some money, you can sell that old psu on craigslist or smth. But that's your choice i'm just talking options.

Good luck with new build

Just to be safe I should get a new psu like the 600w one that the guy mentioned cause it is sill going to make me under my budget
