No optical drive needed then I take it? I swear that MSI mobo will be voltage locked so not ideal for OC'ing. The GB Z77-D3H is a good mobo but £10 more. It would be nice to have a decent cooler for it but this could be added in time to the retail CPU.

Best of luck with the build. Look forward to seeing what you settle on :)

The MSI G43 is voltage locked/limited so you wont be overclocking the 3570K as high as the HD3 board above, also with Gigbayte you get a 3 year UK based warranty and DualBIOS.
