Nikita, any reason why you aren't going with an Ivy Bridge i7? Also, the P67 chipset mobo is two generations old already. Z68 replaced the P67 and the Z77 is replacing the Z68.

So I updated the P67 to a Z77, thou I dont understand the difference. Care to explain?
I couldnt find Ivy Bridge i7 on the site Im ordering from, so what kind of processor would you pick?
Isnt Intel® Core i7-2600K Processor a good choice?

The Ivy Bridge is just the next generation die set of the i7-2600k. it comes with a higher clock out of the box and some other goodies. Apparently it isn't going to be released until the end of the month, though (I didn't know that they had gotten delayed a few weeks), so unless you're willing to wait, the 2600k is a great processor.
