I am about to buy my parts but can someone please do a detailed check as to whether its all compatible? Here are the parts


Corsair CX-500 V3 Power Supply

ASUS DRW-24D3ST 24x DVD Writer

Gigabyte GA-Z87M-D3H Motherboard

GELID Silent 12 120mm Silent Fan

TP-Link TL-WDN4800 450Mbps Wireless N PCIe Adaptor

Western Digital WD Blue 1TB WD10EZEX

Kingston ValueRAM KVR13N9S8K2/8 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3

Intel Core i5 4440

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660 OC 2GB

Deepcool GAMMAXX S40 CPU Cooler

Aerocool Dead Silence Cube with Window Champagne Edition


It is a microatx case so will it all fit? My number one concern is that the PSU wont fit in the case. Will everything fit and work together? Thank you very much

You don't really need a Z87 board, since you're buying a locked CPU.
You could opt for the GA-H87-D3H

Also, you don't really need an aftermarket cooler, the stock one should be good enough.

Interesting choice of case.
Supports max. PSU length of 160mm, the PSU should fit.

Seasonic S12ii 520W

Better than the CX series.



Ill change up the psu and get rid of the fan. Im going with that motherboard because i want this to be a hackintosh and that works the best. Will it still work fine if i keep it?
