The motherboard and CPU are not compatible. Exchange the motherboard with one that has a socket 1155.
 
Yeah little details over looked like that can lead to a D'oh! moment.
The board is AMD while the CPU chip is Intel.

Oh snap BK. You beat me to the punch.
 
You could downgrade your CPU to an i5 3570K model..

Also what store are you buying these parts from, links would be very helpful with prices.
 
i plan to stay with the Z77 but my budget can take this could i go with the sabertooth, AMD 8350 or stay intel and change the board
