Could someone experienced please inform me if these parts will be compatible with linux (ubuntu)?

Processor- AMD FX6300 Black Edition
Motherboard-Asus M5A78L-M/USB3
Graphics card-GIGABYTE NVIDIA GT610
Wireless adapter-TP-Link TL-WN823N 300Mbps

I apprecitate any replies.

It looks like it should work. Hardware support is pretty good in modern Linux, common mobo chipsets, sound and video drivers should install out of the box. The one I had the most concern about was the wireless adapter; the only forum posts I saw citing any issues with that adapter referenced older (versions of Ubuntu (12.04). I'd guess the driver works better in the most recent 14.04.

The motherboard itself passed a check for Ubuntu as old as 10.10
