Sounds nice. Why no data drive?

Sounds Good, however the intel i5 2550k does not have integrated graphics, either

change to the 2500k
..........................alows you to use intel integrated graphics
or change your Z68 to P67
...........................this will give you optimum performance

You could go with a 500GB drive if you're looking to save some money.

No you dont get a graphics card, -

The motherboard you have chosen supports Intel integrated graphics, (integrated into the cpu) but the intel i5 2550k does not have intel integrated graphics, therefore by buying these together you are not benefiting in the ways you should; therefore;

change the 2550k to the 2500k
....................this will allow you to use intel integrated graphics

or change your Z68 to P67
...........................this will give you optimized performance
(Only get this option if you plan to ALWAYS run a graphics card)

The 2550k and the Z68 ARE compatible. But all i am saying is to take this into consideration. If you need more help ill find some sources to back my information up and help you further decide.

 

[Jake-]

To brake it down,

Z68 + 2550k 3.4GHz = No integrated graphics, basic overclocking. (need a GPU)

Z68 + 2500k 3.3GHz = Optimized Integrated graphics, basic Overclocked.*
P67 + 2550k 3.4GHz = No integrated graphics, Optimized Overclocking. (need a GPU)*

P67 + 2500k 3.3GHz = No integrated graphics, Optimized Overclocking. (need a GPU)

The '*' Options are your best

Jake, why are you focusing on the integrated graphics when the build has a much better Nvidia 580?
