I bought and assembled a 

GIGABYTE GA-P55-USB3 LGA 1156 Intel P55 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

With Intel Core i7-875K Lynnfield 2.93GHz LGA 1156 95W Quad-Core Unlocked Desktop Processor BX80605I7875K

It seems a little sluggish though. Sometimes it takes forever to start up/shut down. (though runs decent once it gets going) Do I need to change any of the BIOS settings to make it work optimally?

If you have not done so yet, update the bios to version F8. Do it in Safe Mode.
