Hello,
I'm new at building computers so I'm checking to see if the parts that I have chosen are compatible with each other.

This link shows all the parts that I have chosen:

Please give some advice on how to improve this build. I don't really care about the price, I just want to build the Ultimate PC.

I have a couple of questions:
1. Is my power supply good enough for the build?
2. Do you know of any better or cooler cases?

Thanks! I appreciate all responses!!! :)
 
Solution
Intel uses a socket for 2 generations than ditches it. They do what they call a "Tick-Tock".

Right now Intel's main socket is the LGA1155. Sandy Bridge was the "tick", released last year, Ivy Bridge was the "tock", which was released a couple months ago.

Haswell is the next "tick", it will be on LGA1150, and no it will not be backward compatible with Sandy/Ivy.
