yes. Get an SSD if you can, if not, get it ASAP.

Also, why get a z87 board when you can get a z97 board?

Get a 4670k rather than the 4440, it's only a little more.

ok but just a head ups that the FX upgrade path may be limited to the FX8350 and the useless FX9590

The AMD piledriver is 2 year old. Stick with intel....the i5 costs a lil bit more.

 

And yes AMD has no plans for future for the FX series till 2016
