It looks good and all, but intel>AMD. Im not even a fanboy, I use an AMD proccessor. For the most part, intel is for the mid high to high end machines, and AMD is for the budget PCs. Plus intel just released the new haswell line 4th gen CPUs. The 8320 definitely wont dissapoint though. Its basically a 8350 with a smaller clock speed.My god, one moment it's "AMD is what you want" and the next it's "Intel>AMD" Ima stick with AMD, and if you forgot, I am on a budget. I'll update if I get new specs.

You could fit one of the new 4670ks and a z87 extreme3 in a $1100 build comfortably. But if you want to go AMD, I think you picked the best AMD processor to get. If you ever have second thoughts, I suggest going over to the tomshardware website and asking them. They're the real experts.
EDIT: Also if your gonna go AMD, I suggest getting a newer chipset motherboard instead of 970. 970 is old, I have a 970 and I hate it. Get a 990 or 990FX chipset motherboard. This would be fine http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157281 although its $20 more than the one you have chosen. But you could bump that hyper 212 evo down to just a hyper 212 plus and save $10. The evo doesnt have that much of a performance boost over the plus to make the $10 worth it. Its literally like a one degree difference.

Edit: Took your advice on the CPU cooler.
The SSD is only for the OS, and thanks for pointing out that Blu Ray thingy, I feel dumbDis is what I gots: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/132v5It looks good and all, but intel>AMD.

I would of picked a better motherboard if I knew you were willing to spend $180 on one haha. But literally the only things I would possibly change now, only if you want to though, would be to bump up the SSD to 64gb and the ram to 1600. Also just noticed that you have a blu ray player for your CD drive. If thats intended thats fine but you could get a cheap normal CD drive for like $18 instead of a fancy smancy $50 one. Besides, what is this the stone age? Who uses actual discs these days, just stream dat shit.
EDIT: Good 64gb SSD for only $10 more than the one you have now http://pcpartpicker.com/part/ocz-internal-hard-drive-agt325sat360g
The SSD is only for the OS, and thanks for pointing out that Blu Ray thingy, I feel dumbYeah but if for $10 more you can get 32 GB more I'd HIGHLY recommend it. I have an 80GB SSD for OS only and it's got about 26 GB left which was hard to do. Even with just the OS only just tiny things that will want to go to your main drive or not give you a choice to choose which HD it installs to. You want at least 64GB for a primary HD. 80 or > would be preferred though.

Do PCs actually need sound cards these days?Need.... No.
(I legitimately don't know, I haven't had a dedicated sound card in like 7 years)
Dude, no game uses an 8 core processor. It's a waste of munies.How is it a waste of money its 70 dollars less than the 3570k?
Unless you want to run a server...
Again, to much money on the RAM.
You're paying to much for a motherboard IMHO.
SSD needs to be bigger.
I think the wattage of your PSU can lower to 600 maybe 520 wattage... idk for sure.
