Gpu: GTX 670
Cpu: i5 2500K
MOBO: GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD5H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Solution
when you order the motherboard make sure it has a compatible bios. the seller should know.
as for hdds get as big as you can afford 1-2TB

ssd, although ssd drives cost a lot more per GB its better to get a 250GB than a 64 or 80 they tend to offer more GB per £/$ and will hold a lot more so will be more useful as far as apps working.

with 1500 you could even go sli on the 670's and have some serious fire power at your disposal.

as for the 2500K your not loosing much per clock as far as grunt goes but the better thermals means better overclocking, 1s you hget to 4.5 your gonna close any gap that existed between this and ivy will be gone.
yes its a little older but it works very well.
