Hi everyone!


I have started building my first gaming setup (mainly for online FPS multiplayer like Titanfall) and I would like to have some questions answered.

Firstly, I don't have access to ethernet of any kind (big house) but I do have fairly good Wifi (AirPort Extreme 802.11n 5th Generation) will this work with my computer? Parts are below.

Will I need thermal paste!


Intel Core i3 4130 Dual Core HYPER-THREADING 3.4GHZ Processor LGA1150 Haswell 3MB Cache Retail

ASUS H81M-A uATX LGA1150 H81 DDR3 1PCI-E16 2PCI-E1 SATA3 USB3.0 HDMI Motherboard

ASUS GeForce GTX 650 Ti OC 980MHZ 1GB 5.4GHZ GDDR5 2xDVI HDMI VGA PCI-E Video Card

Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB 3.5IN 16MB Cache SATA3 Internal Hard Disk Drive HDD

Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition 64Bit SP1 DVD OEM

XFX 550W PRO550W Core Edition Single Rail ATX 12V 44A 24PIN ATX Power Supply 80PLUS
Bronze

ASUS DRW-24F1ST 24X SATA DVD Writer Black

Corsair 4GB Ram

Bitfenix Comrade Case Black

Will all of these parts go together and be compatible? and can I have wifi in this setup, if so what should I get??

Am I missing any parts?

Thanks,
Sombody

Welcome to Tom's!
The heatsink that comes with your CPU has pre-applied thermal paste. you would need to add a wifi card for your pc to connect to the wireless network.

Welcome!

Do you have a budget so i can look around for part for a better price / performance?

Termal paste is pre-applied on the cpu cooler.
