This is the first computer I've built in over five years so I am way behind. I've got a $1400 budget. This will be used for encoding video 95% of time. Stability, reliability, cool and quiet are the name of the game for me. Here is what I've come up with so far.
I would like suggestions, recommendations as far as compatibility, better components, etc.
ASUS P8Z77-V PRO/THUNDERBOLT

Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core
SeaSonic SS-520FL 520W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS PLATINUM Certified Full Modular Active PFC Power Supply
