eheheh looks like you`re new to this..

1) No, It will not work at all and most likely you will set fire to whole of your computer, if you do manage to put intel CPU in AMD mobo.
2) The mobo you picked up is for AMD, you need Socket 1155 motherboard preferably Z77
3) Either get 2500k/3570K since you can overclock them or if you dont want to overclock, get Intel xeon 1230
4) I`ve got CM storm case, get Zalman Z9 case its cheaper and better.
