Hi. I am very new to building computers and I'm intending on making one but I need to make sure all the parts are compatible.
ASRock FM2A78M-HD+ A78 FM2 Motherboard: $53 - mother bourd

AMD Athlon X4 750K Quad-Core CPU: $80 - cpu

Kingston HyperX Black CL9 1600mhz 8gb: $65 - ram

ASUS GTX760 Direct CU II: $240 - graphics card

WD Blue 1tb 7200rpm Sata III 6Gb/s HDD: $60 - hard drive

Thermaltake TR2 TR-600 600W PSU: $25 - power supply

Thermaltake Black Chaser MK-I Full Tower Gaming PC Case - chassis
thanks for answering if you answer

Admirable
The only AMD cpu's i recommend for games is the fx 6350+ or the new a10 kaveri since it sports parallelism with its 28nm architecture.

The 3.4ghz the Athlon offers is not good at all when its vs. a 28nm gpu. You would need to push it to 4ghz to keep up with your video card and a 6350 does 4.2ghz out of box.

thelightreaper: thanks very much for the recommendations but this was suppose to be a $500 limited PC I know its like a urban law that your suppose to use $1500 or more but I'm trying to prove a point to a friend that i can build a better computer than his with the same price.
