Are there any parts i missed?
Are all these parts compatible?
Okay, i'm going to get this CORSAIR Hydro series H50 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler, I'm new to the world of building a pc so where would i get an operating system? what does an operating system do?
LITE-ON 24X DVD Writer Internal SATA Model ihas324-07 would this optical drive work?
Never mind about the operating system, i'm going to use Microsoft Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit - OEM is this one okay?

Answer
You need a CPU Cooler/Heatsink.

With an expensive CPU, I'd go with liquid cooling (Like the CORSAIR Hydro series H50), but if you do that then you have a case that will house everything.

The motherboard you chose is decent, but limited. 16gb is the MOST it will hold and it only has 2 slots (So if your 16gb RAM was 4x4gb, you'll only be able to use 8). Few people need more than 8gb either way, so not a big deal...yet.

You also need an Operating System and Optical Drive (CD, DVD, Bluray, etc) to install the Operating System.
