Hello community!
Yesterday I purchased a bunch of components to build my first budget gaming pc. I don't overclock (except for the gpu a little). And play with a single GPU. (And probably never will go crossfire or sli)
After having ordered all components I realized I ordered the wrong Haswell motherboard. An Asrock B85m. I read that it's supposed to be for businesses which made me scared it will bottleneck or be incompatible with everything else. I chose it based on the amount of USB ports and PCI express 3.0. It was also 20 euro's cheaper than H87m pro 4.
I also read that the B85m does not support SSD caching. I ordered my first SSD with this build. Will it function properly?
My build:

If the link doesn't work:
It's an i5 4570 with cooler master hyper tx3 evo, Asrock B85m, msi R9 270x, Crucial ballistix sport 8gb DDR3-1600, a 120 gb kingston SSD now V300 series and a Be quiet 500W power supply (the correct link is not included in the pc part picker). I would recycle my old HDD.
All of this would have to fit in the Bitfenix Prodigy M case.
I was trying to go for a quiet machine that can play Battlefield 4 at High/Ultra settings on 1080p. I researched everything else really well and made a split second decision on the motherboard which might hopefully didn't ruin my build. Should I send it back and get a new one or will this do fine?
Thank you!
