I have ordered the motherboard, I will order the processor and case next week.
I need to know is these are definitely compatible so im not wasting ma dolla
I am getting the following

Xigmatek Alfar Midi Tower Windowed Case - Black/Black
Intel 3rd Generation Core i5-3570K CPU (4 x 3.40GHz, Ivy Bridge, Socket 1155, 6Mb L3 Cache, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0
Intel Extreme Series DZ77RE-75K Desktop Motherboard Intel K/Core i7 Socket LGA1155 Z77
16GB kit (8GBx2), 240-pin DIMM, DDR3 PC3-12800 memory module
Western Digital RE4 1TB SATA-II 64MB Cache - OEM (WD1003FBYX) HDD

I have not chose the rest of the system yet will post soon but need to know about these parts
 
there cheaper and better boards than the Intel Extreme Series DZ77RE-75K

kit for memory doesn't say which one, so have no idea, but as long as the board supports it then yes

Western Digital RE4 1TB SATA-II 64MB Cache is a strange choice for a normal setup with a high price for a low size, if your after something that will last longer then yes, but apart from that it has no other good points, and i love WD drives.

the Toshiba (7K1000.D) 1TB SATA 6GB/s 32MB Cache is cheaper and faster

the Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache is again cheaper and almost as fast as the Toshiba but slighty higher in price, WD black are for normal builds, RE4 are for Enterprise use really
