I would advise something other than G.skill memory - there have been quality and compatibility issues. Look at Corsair, Crucial, Kingston, and A-Data.

We also discourage X58 for first builds, we recommend P55 and i7-8xx. The stock CPU cooler is fine unless you are going to be heavily overclocking.
