Hey everyone, sorry for the numerous threads on my build! Just want to make sure everything will be compatible.
Now, I am trying to save a little money and I got rid of the original 8gb corsair memory, and decided to get the RAM in the link below. But i've read mixed reviews that it is and isnt compatible on LGA1155 motherboards. I like that it is low profile, and low voltage, which is the reason i want to get it. (The white doesn't hurt either!) So, I guess i am wondering how it will do with the motherboard i have selected. I'm basically at my budget. I can fork out another 20 bucks if i absolutely have to. SO what is your opinion TH members?
Some help would be appreciated!
Last but not least, if you would be so kind to let me know if the 400 watt power supply will be enough to power the 7870, that would be great. Again, I have heard that it is and isn't enough power. ATI recommends 500 watts or more, but i have read that many can do with 400-450. The total power of the system is under 350 watts so i should be okay right??
Thanks for the help and i'll reply quick
