I have purchased a*z77x-ud5h an ssd drive and about to pick up a 680 card. Sole use is for gaming and don't want to bottle neck my system in anyway.

Which CPU would you advise? Not really out to save money but don't want to pay for paying sake. I would like to look*at the ivy range that's about to be released.

I have completely missed the last few years so have no idea about the i5 or i7.

Oh and I won't be overclocking at all.*

Feel really out of my depth building this system so if you can advise on which chip would you please confirm the exact model and that it will work with my motherboard.

Thanks*for any help
 
Thanks everyone and I hear what you say about overclocking so will not cross it off just in case.

I so far have The z77x-ud5h, Samsung green ram 8gb, 680 card soon. 128m4 SSD.

So you can see I have not skimped. Would you still say the 3570 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-404-IN&groupid=701&catid=6&subcat=567 for gaming? I'm not going to loose on performance.

Will the cooler that comes with it be ok? If not could you recommend one please.

Thanks all
