i7 is, last I checked, the best thing on the market. It will do literally anything you will do in the next five years. You will never use it to its full potential.

Get any mobo, as long as you don't get one that's like 20 bucks. i7 is an investment; protect it with a medium-priced mobo. Make sure to get one that has all the connectors you need.

I don't know shit about video cards but if it's expensive it's probably good.

there are i7 processors that are like 6 years old now

haswell i7 4770k is the newest one

gtx 580 is a very good video card but its about to be 3 generations old which doesnt really matter

i like gigabyte motherboards

if you really want me to tell you the best cpu/video card/mobo, be prepared to spend 5k+
