hello everyone . i will try my best since my english are bad.I've been thinking about building my own PC for a while now and have finally put together what I think is a good list of parts. i will ask alot of questions probably ( sorry )
the problem here is i don't know if the parts are compatible. so let's start
Case: AEROCOOL V3X ADVANCE MIDI TOWER EVIL BLACK EDITION http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.810868 ( mobo problem maybe?does it fit? i know its small )
Power Supply: INTER-TECH SL-500W 500W PSU http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.640667
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHZ 6-CORE http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.559644
Mobo: (i have a problem here): is these mobos compatible with my cpu and graphics card?i have alot of options.what's better? also, if you're interested, the cheapest price tag possible on this
MSI 760GA-P43 (FX) RETAIL http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.523801

Video Card: GIGABYTE GEFORCE GTX660 GV-N660OC-2GD 2GB DDR5 PCI-E RETAIL http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.516476
Memory:another question (i am confused) how many Mhz i will need for my amd cpu and gigabyte gtx 660.1600/1866?i think something like these but i am not sure if i'll buy these.all i want to know is 1600/1866 etc
CRUCIAL BLS2C4G3D169DS3CEU 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3 1600MHZ BALLISTIX SPORT XT DUAL CHANNEL KIT (1600MHZ) http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.554349&sid=1 or

Monitor: AOC E2070SWN 19.5'' LED MONITOR BLACK http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.168456


my graphics card says pci-express 3.0 but the above motherboards don't have pci-3 i think. is it ok? can i connect it to the motherboard?

WINDOWS: i will buy windows 7 from a shop.
I don't want speakers i have headset nor mouse

+ how many fps will i get on cs:go (without shadow etc) dayz mod (not SA) battlefield 3 on high settings and probably arma 3 on high (without shadow vsync etc)

thank you for reading the whole thing and for your time.
thanks again in advance :)
 
Solution
with the computer case look for a newer gaming case that looks like this on the inside.

the case you picked out with the fixed hard drive tray limits the length of the video cards you can use. pci 3.0 cards will run slower in a pci 2.0 amd mb.
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A97_R20/
want this motherboard for the usb flashback port. some motherboards and fx cpu need a bios update before you can get the motherboard to post. the usb flashback port lets you update the bios before you put the cpu into the mb. with amd motherboard go with the 1866 ram. make sure if your gaming get 8g of ram even if it slower ram.
the usb wifi card will fit on your pc.

hello again. what about this case.alot of people said its good. http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.807670
(i know its midi tower) the M5A97_R20 mobo you mentioned before and my gtx 660 will it fit?i don't care if its beautiful or not.it will be 'sandwiched' for sure but all i want is to fit.
what about the MSI 760GA-P43 (FX) RETAIL http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.523801
its wrong or something? because i want to save some money
pci 3.0 cards will run slower in a pci 2.0 amd mb.--->how much?is it bad?
 


ASUS M5A97 R2.0 is the only good motherboard you listed. It is the only board to have good VRM cooling whilst the others don't.
You will fit everything into that case.
There is no difference yet in pci3.0 and pci2.0. Just run your graphic card on the PCIe 2.0 x16 (blue) slot.
You should change your power supply to a better quality. Choose from brands like Antec, Corsair (Not CX,VS), Seasonic or XFX). 550W is enough . Max i would get is 650W.
