First off all hi everyone!,

I was wondering if you could check my parts before I went and bought them.
This is what I'm planning on buying.

- 16GB 1600mhz Corsair Dominator DDR3
- Intel Core i5 3570k
- Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD4H (not sure about this one, specs seem to be compatible)

already owned
- XFX 9600gt 512MB (waiting out for 10.8.3 to see if AMD 7000 is getting support ;)
- Corsair VX550w (550w psu)
- Zalman GS1000 case (thinking about another one but not sure yet)
- Samsung 830 (128gb) SSD, Samsung 1tb 7200rpm and Samsung 1,5tb 5400rpm drives
- Samsung 203D optical drive.

Could you give some feedback on these parts?
The z77x-ud4h is pretty new so I haven't been able to find any builds with it yet.

Thanks in advance;)
 
Looks good to me. Not sure about the optical drive, but if you already have it in a PC-Mac and it works and doesn't prevent sleep, then no problem.
 
Well, sleep isn't working but that has more to do with my motherboard
than my OD. Probably will install it but if it does give troubles I'l leave it out.
Never use anyway :p

Just hope someone is going to do a build with the
motherboard soon. Better to have a guide to fall back on.

Use the build guides for the UD5H - practically the same board minus a mSATA port and a NIC, and having different audio chips.
