Looking for constructive feed back what do you think?
I would go for Haswell instead of Ivy Bridge.
Are you looking to overclock? If you are, get the 3570k, as the 3570 cannot overclock. If you are not, get a cheaper H77 motherboard, and don't bother getting an aftermarket cooler, as the stock cooler will do fine. I would also go for the caviar blue HDD (maybe 1 TB as well).
As for Haswell vs. Ivy Bridge, it's a little more performance for a little more expense. It's worth the buy if you ask me, but that's up to you.
If you're looking for portability as well, a Lian Li A05NB wouldn't be a bad choice for a case (imo, the one you chose looks a little tacky)
But you've stayed within a reasonable budget, and that's pretty impressive. If you want to splurge a bit more, Haswell, also, you might want a CD drive.
I'm not entirely sure if BF4 will run on a 650...what's your budget?
EDIT: Okay, maybe it could. I just read the system requirements. Nevermind.
Do not cheap out on GPU, games will get more and more GPU intensive...
Could you budge 545$ from your piggy bank, there is an Radeon HD 7990's w/ 8 games selling for 699$
Latest drivers fix crossfire issues for DX10/11 games, single monitor and up to 1440p and its Beta so future drivers will improve and fix more things.
