If you aren't overclocking you don't need an aftermarket cooler.

Depending on the price differences, I'd just go with an older mobo compatible with DDR3 and possibly a year older CPU depending on compatibility. You won't really notice much of a difference, and a high end i5, even if it is a year old will not be the limiting factor on your computer. Likely will save substantial dollars.

That is also an enormous power supply for your build, unless you are intending on going dual gpu eventually (I personally went 750 just so I'd have that option available).

Don't forget a cd drive if your case doesn't come with it...unless you are buying everything digital.

The 6600K doesn't come with a cooler. 

Just go with a 6600 then. There is really no need to overclock anyways, and by the time you do, you should probably just be upgrading your computer.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
