Solution
Yes, the build is fully compatible with another.


also stock coolers are crap, that comes with the cpu.
You'll want to look at aftermarket.
Air, Closed loop water, or custom water cooling.

Standard air cooler that MOST people recommend is the Hyper 212 Evo ($30)

for a closed loop water cooler
the h80i or h100,h100i

Solution
everything should work but I have a few questions/suggestions:

1. none of your links work for me, so I'm going by what you wrote

2. Why are you getting a Z87 motherboard (overclocking) and a non "k" processor? the regular i5 4670 is not overclockable, you would need the i5 4670K to overclock. If you do not plan on overclocking or SLI'ing in the future, you can get a "B" or "H" series socket 1150 motherboard for less than the cost of a Z87 motherboard.

3. If you are going to overlock, you will need an aftermarket cpu cooler (HSF)

4. The PSU you selected is much larger than what you probably need...... if you are not overclocking and don't intend to SLI in the future, then a quality 450W PSU from Seasonic, XFX, Corsair (except for their CX series) or Antec will run you system fine.

If you are planning to overclock but not SLI, then you may want to look at something in the 500-550 watt range from one of the previously named manufacturers.

If you aren't going to overclock but plan on SLI in the future, then a 600W unit will do.

If you plan to overclock and SLI in the future, look for something in the 650-750 watt range.
 
Hey your build seems pretty good. Here are a few things to consider (BTW several of your links don't work)

Your GPU:
You selected a Asus GTX 650 ti boost. You might want to consider buying a EVGA or a Gigabyte one. They are better than an asus one. Also you might want to consider upgrading to a gtx 760 depending on which games you are planning on playing

Your MOBO:
The as rock board is pretty good. You might want to consider looking at the Asus z87-a. Its a quality mono and very similar to the As-Rock. Right now its cheaper so check it out.

Your CPU:
The i5 4570 is pretty good, but right now new egg is running a 20 dollar off promo on the i5 4670k so at the same price you might want to consider upgrading to that.

Your Case/Case fan:
The case seems pretty good, however if you are going to purchase another case fan, why not look at getting a case with more fans or better airflow. For example a corsair 500r.

BTW do you plan on over clocking?
 


I will be upgrading them one by one
