Hi Im new to pc building

gtx650 Ti Boost 2gb
harddisk 2TB seagate
core i5 4570 haswell
Seasonic G-550 550W 80Plus Gold Modular Power Supply
Gskill RipjawsX 8GB Dual 1333 CL7
Cooler Master Force 500
Asus VS197D 18.5″ Led Monitor
Sonic Gear Morro 200 – USB Powered 2.0 Audio Speakers

What motherboard do you guys suggest I should buy? I would also like to know if there are parts that doesnt go well with each other

Im not gonna overclock my build. also m looking for somewhat mid range since high end cpu gets old pretty quickly. Im told that 7870 is better than 650 ti and also almost the same price? Is radeon better than gtx in terms of brand. I was also recommended to use 1600 ram instead of 1333 since its more compatible with my build?.

Any other feedback or suggestion is highly appreaciated

Yes,you can use 1600 RAM with an i5
Yeah,you should get the Radeon R9 270 [basically a 7870 with lower power consumption] instead.
If you don't intend to overclock then what you want is a H87 chipset motherboard,which one would depend on your budget,but generally Gigabyte,Asus or Asrock are solid brands.
You could save some cash on your RAM by going with a less tight CAS latency like CL9,you won't notice the difference in real use.
