Hello,
I am going to build my own computer soon. All i am wondering is if this is a good choice:

INTEL CORE I5 3570K 3.4GHZ 6MB S-1155 IVY
CORSAIR GS 800W GAMING SERIES PSU
CORSAIR 8GB DDR3 1866MHZ (2X4GB) CL9 VENGEANCE
ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 S-1155 ATX IVY
COOLER MASTER MIDITOWER HAF 912 PLUS BLACK
SEAGATE BARRACUDA 7200.12 1TB 7200RPM SATA/600 32MB
Sony DVD Writer, AD-5280S
OCZ SSD Agility 3 Series 2.5" 120GB 20nm

Thanks!
 
1) It would help if you gave us a budget
2) You did not tell us your graphics solution
3) The PSU is most likely overkill
4) Everything else looks fine
 
I am going for this build for myself and we have the same budget considering you already have your GPU. Take a look =)

Cpu = i5 3570k $190
Mobo = ASRock z77 extreme4 $130
Psu = Seasonic 620 M $70
Memory = Patriot viper 3 $50
Storage = Samsung 120gb / 1Tb WD blue $100 / $70
Cooler = CM hyper evo $30
Gpu = Gtx 660ti $280
Case = Thermaltake Overseer "already have" $99

Total = $1020
Tax not included and prices may vary depending on where to get the parts.

Ofcourse you can choose less pricier parts depending on reviews and what your really want. This is pretty much what im building for myself but kinda wana share my thoughts with you about parts and prices. And if you live in CA and close to Tustin area, Microcenter have a great deal with their Processors/Motherboard combo you get $50 off which you can use to buy your RAM. And i chose i5 3570K and z77 mobo because im planning to Overclock thats why im also getting a nonstock cooler. =)
