Start with that, you can look into a different CPU cooler, depending on whether your are OCing or not, the one I provided is the old standby air cooler that most seem to like. You will also want to look at how much storage you want, I picked a 1tb drive and a 128gb ssd. The GTX 670 is a good price/performance GPU, you could change that if you want more or less graphics performance. The case you can change out too, I loved my corsair for my first build, lots of cable management, but you might want one more aesthetically pleasing. Got you a blu-ray reader, no burner, might wanna switch that. The monitor is a good one, same one I have, but again, you could change it. For what I picked, the PSU is a good one, imo. I also have the same MOBO, its got good features but may be more than you need, if you don't plan on SLI or XFire later, it does have a wireless card/module though included. Let me know if you have other questions.
P.S., I also forgot to check if the RAM would clear the CPU cooler, I think low profile RAM may be necessary for the EVO, we can change that out if you decide to stick with it. You also don't need 16gb RAM but I like buying it all at once so I don't have to worry about matching sets later.
