Hey everybody,
I am trying to build my first computer, as my previous computer is a 7 year old HP with an E6300 core 2 duo, 2 gb ram and using intel GMA 950 graphics card. I was just wondering with a budget of 1200 including taxes and shipping I have devised a build that includes: *dont really care for over clocking

MOTHERBOARD: Asus P8Z77-V LK Socket 1155 Intel Z77 Chipset
- Dual Channel DDR3 2400(O.C.) MHz, 3x PCI-Express x16
- GLAN, 4x SATA 3.0Gb/s, 2x SATA 6.0Gb/s, 4x USB 3.0, 2x USB 2.0
- DVI/DisplayPort/HDMI, ATX - 124.99$

POWER SUPPLY:
Cooler Master Silent Pro M2 620W 80Plus Bronze Certified Modular Power Supply (RS620-SPM2E3-US) - 79.99
OR
Cooler Master Silent Pro M2 720W 80Plus Bronze Certified Modular Power Supply (RS720-SPM2D3-US) - 99.99
FAN: No clue what to get for cooling
Do you guys have any suggestions or comments on this build. I'm a casual gamer, but would like to play most games on high to ultra ( if thats possible) Generally want to play AC3, dishonoured, (games with graphics like crysis or crysis 2) etc.
Thank you for your time and consideration
