It looks like a really good mobo to me. I also think it especially fits this build.

Get these instead:

SSD: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

CPU+RAM: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Case: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Graphics card: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Motherboard: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

You'll get much better performance and the whole build should cost less.

To me, it seems like he already built the PC.

Yes, and I only see a motherboard being recommended completely out of the blue. There's no reason to use a Z77 motherboard like the Extreme4 with a locked i5 because a B75 or H77 board would have the exact same functionality.

If you have already built this, well, dang.

So if I make the changes you recommended then will this be a decent build for gaming?

What you should do depends on whether you have actually bought the parts or not. Have you?
