Making a PC

Making a me a desktop for when I go off to college. Here's what I got so far.

Processor: Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I53570K - Newegg.com
Motherboard: ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard - Newegg.com
Graphics: ASUS HD7770-2GD5 Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 2GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card - Newegg.com
Monitor: ASUS VE247H Black 23.6" Full HD HDMI LCD Monitor w/Speakers - Newegg.com

I know I'm missing pieces, this is just what I'm looking at now. Thoughts? Good? Bad?

Good Luck making one...

It's looking pretty good so far. You're going to need a good cooling system, I'd suggest Liquid.

Liquid cooling with that CPU? Not necessary.

Yeah the build looks great and future proof for the next year or so depending on what comes out.

6 is what the peak will be at, if you want extra space just in case go for 8. but if you're going more than 1 monitor I'd look for 12.

Looks good, but i think if you have a good air cooling system with some fans in the case it should be enough too

I currently use the i7 3770k and a geforce gtx 670 only with some fans and i always have it below 50° also when im playing bf3 on ultra etc
