I just ordered up the Intel holiday deal from retail edge, please help me finish up the build.

3rd generation Intel Core i7 3770K Desktop Processor
Intel Desktop Board DZ77GAL-70K Extreme Series
Intel Solid-State Drive 520 Series (180 GB)

from the i7 deal a few years ago i have:
Corsair 800w psu
Corsair H50, probably wont fit the new socket
two more intel 80gb ssd's
EVGA nvidia 260gtx

I guess my biggest questions are what memory and what graphics card? ive been out of the game for a while and need help!!
 
he is back from the dead; I have some DDR3 CMT6GX3M3A2000C8 make an offer;
 
Yeah, the Nvidia 6 series runs very efficiently and so far kicks ass :) I love the 680 I have with any game :)
 
I think the H50 will work. I have had zero issues the Corsair H100 on performance or socket fitting. And they use the same pump and heat sync mount.
 
Your options are vast for a video card, I would say it depends upon your budget which video card you get. As for RAM if you aren't overclocking it, any trusted brand DDR3 @ 1333 should suffice. Basically what are you willing to spend?
 
I looked at a few nvidia'a today, 650 I think. I might try the built in hdmi on the mobo and see what happens, lol.

As for ram, I emailed corsair for some dealer pricing, waiting on a reply.

Im getting excited to get back on the grid, nice to see you too Balls
