Hi, i will be building my first computer soon,

Can anyone check to see if there is any compatibility problems with the components i have chose:

Corsair Carbide Series 300R
MSI Z87-G45-GAMING
Intel Core i5 4670K
G-Skill Ripjaws Ram (4x4GB)
Corsair H80i
Corsair 600w builder series
MSI GTX 760 2GB
Samsung 840 EVO 120GB SSD
Seagate 1TB Barracuda HDD
Windows 8.1

Corsair Air Series AF140-LED 140mm (x2 for the front of the case)

Edimax EW-7811UN 150Mbps - Wireless USB

I'm slightly concerned over the H80i would i be able to fit it, to the exhaust fan point of the case

Any help, would be much appreciated
Thanks

Everything is perfectly compatible.
Although 16GB of RAM is pointless. Drop to 8GB and spend that money on a better PSU/graphics card.
Also the CX builder 600W is a low cost PSU that I only suggest to use on low cost builds, since yours is not low cost. Get something like an XFX 550 or similar higher quality PSU.

Brilliant! Thanks for the help.
I was worried about the h80i and the case.
Advise for the ram taken! I believe i will be going for a more powerful psu.

Thanks again
