Thanks a bunch Daifukkatsu. :)

I did some more research as well. For the mobo, I"m glad you suggested ASUS, as my previous mobo was an asus but I wasnt sure if it had any competitors in its class. I am looking at a sabretooth z77 or a P8 z77 VLX fr now.

As for the GPU, I already have a radeonHD5770 ( i know its probably a mid-to-low end card right now), but I plan to upgrade that in the future. For the PSU, i thought I could manage with my CoolerMaster500W, but you are right. I'll have to wait to get all my other components, including my HDD and SSD. Honestly, I had not given much thought on SSDs, but apparently they are good to have..Also, I suppose I still have to check out some more specs for my processor.

(just realised I made a mistake while stating the processor I was looking for.. meant to write i5 3470K or 3570K and not i7)..

Thanks again.
