First Gaming PC

[InfiniteZz]

So I decided to take my computing to the next level by creating my own PC, so I decided to look up some parts... But unfortunately due to the lack of skill as well as intelligence I don't know if these parts would be compatible with each other so here's the list:
Seagate Barracuda 2 TB HDD SATA 6 Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive ST2000DM001


Intel Core i5-2500K Quad-Core Processor 3.3 GHz 6 MB Cache LGA 1155 - BX80623I52500K

GIGABYTE GA-P67X-UD3-B3 LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti SSC 2048MB GDDR5 128bit, Dual Dual-Link DVI, Mini
HDMI, Graphics Card (01G-P4-3653-KR) Graphics Cards 02G-P4-3653-KR

Corsair XMS3 8 GB (2 x 4GB) 1333 MHz PC3-10666 240-Pin DDR3 Memory Kit CMX8GX3M2A1333C9

Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 500w Power Supply (RS500-PCARD3-US)

Rosewill Black Gaming ATX Mid Tower Computer Case CHALLENGER

Thanks

Also If this build is not really great I'm looking for a good gaming PC that can run everything at 60 FPS at ultra settings (especially during recording sessions with Fraps) so for now I can only afford from $500-$950

Get a motherboard with a z77 chipset.
Get 1600mhz RAM
Get an i5 3570k if you want to overclock.
Get a PSU from Antec, XFX, Corsair, Seasonic.

Do you have a specific budget range, some of these items are a bit outdated, aren't reliable or do not perform as well compared to the "new" editions of X, Y, and Z.

To start here are the changes I would make and why:

Seagate drive is fine, if you can find a WD drive for the same price I would go for it only because of a longer warranty.

i5 2500k is the same price as the i5 3550k which is the next generation, you should look at getting it. (12% faster in most cases)

P67 is an outdated motherboard chipset, you should get a z77 board, all of these work: asrock extreme4, asus p8z77 V or the gigabyte z77 D3H whichever you can get for the best price you should get.

Get a CPU cooler if you want to overclock as well, if you do not want to overclock you should get: an i5 3470, and a b75 or h77 board instead of the suggestions above.

XMS is typically very expensive, some vengeance or patriot (there should be an 1866 mhz kit that is very cheap) would do just fine in place of that.

650ti is more expensive than a 7790 which ends up outperforming the 650ti in most cases, you should look into getting one of these cards.

The cooler master eXtreme power was described by many as a polished turd, you should stick the Antec, Corsair, Seasonic or XFX...

Case is fine

But at the end of the day the current parts you have are all compatible, just some may not be wise choices...

Right now I can only afford from $500-$950, but I'll try to look at the items you suggested, thanks for the help. Just want to add another small little detail just giving you a reason why I want to build a gaming PC, and you will totally agree with me.
Current Specs:
Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics
AMD Athlon 7750 Dual-Core Processor 2.70 GHz
RAM: 6.00 GB
OS: Windows 8
Memory: 500 GB
(I got Windows 8 cause it actually boosted my performance, but the compatibility for some games is just horrible)
Again thanks for the help, it is very much appreciated
