So I'm building a new gaming PC, and i need some assistance.
This is my first proper PC build, although i have added a few things to mine and my brothers pre-made computers before, and i consider myself to be very knowledgeable when it comes to computers as i have watched hours of tutorials.
What i need help with is weather my PC will actually work with the parts I have chosen. If someone were to just inform me if the parts I give will work together or not that would be amazing.

Parts:

Case: Thermaltake P5 Mid Tower Case

Motherboard: MSI Z77A 1155

CPU: Intel i5 3330 1155

Fans: 5x Thermaltake 120mm

RAM: Hyper X 16GB

PSU: Corsair 650W

HDD: 1TB Hard Drive

SSD: 240GB SSD

GPU: NVIDIA EVGA GTX 760 2GB Graphics Card

These are all the specs i will be using. NOTE: I know i am not using watercooling and i have an open case, so there is no need in me getting the fans. They are purely for looks and a bit of added air flow :)

Also i know that this is a hard case to start with, but i think i can do it and it looks amazing!

And finally i already have the GPU and the CPU, so i have to go with a 1155 motherboard for the CPU otherwise it will not work, so the motherboard i found will most likely have to stay.

Thank you to anyone who helps me out!

The parts appear the be compatible and should fit. The Z77 motherboard is kind of wasted on a locked CPU but given the age of the chipset, any 1155 motherboard you find for a good price is a good deal.

Thanks man, i realize that it is a waste, but I already have the processor from a previous PC, but i guess i can always upgrade at a later date.
Also can i just add that i plan to have 5 of the fans i mentioned, 4 along the wall of the case and 1 to replace the CPU fan, can i just ask again if this is possible?
 
The case fans yes, but unless you are using an aftermarket cooler that allows you to change fans, the 5th one won't be used. From your list, it appears you will be using the stock cooler. The fan you are buying is too large for the stock cooler.
