Attempting First Build

I recently ordered an i5 3330s to replace the Pentium G630 in my server so that got me thinking that I would have this extra CPU around and that I already have an extra HDD lying around plus a copy of Windows 8 so what else would I need to attempt building my own PC and this is what I came up with PSU: Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 500W RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB kit Cooling: Cooler Master Seidon 120M Liquid Cooling System Case: Cooler Master Elite 130 mini ITX Motherboard Asus P8H61-1 R2 beside that I have thermal paste and sata cables laying around. I also had a Bluetooth and wireless AC card picked out but then I got to thinking that instead of removing the Pentium and installing the i5 why wouldn't I just install the i5 in the new box only buy 8GB of RAM and reinstall WHS2011 on the new box (making the wireless a moot point) and install the copy of Windows 8 Pro onto the Inspiron 660S? Well that is something I will have to ponder in the next few days but I was looking to see if I missed anything else that I would need for the build if anyone sees anything could you let me know since I haven't attempted this yet but am fairly certain that I can do it.
