Hi guys.
This is my first thread, so please excuse me if I make some behavioral/know-how mistakes.
My problem is that I would like to assemble a mid-performance low budget PC. My first thought was, of course, the CPU. I have chosen Intel, because, although I am not getting a very high-end CPU, I could at least upgrade to one in the future, Intel high-end CPUs outperforming AMD's ones. Here are the specs that I have chosen, and their price at my chosen retailor:
So my question is, are these components compatible? And if you have time, can you offer some better alternatives for some of the components keeping the budget in mind?

■ CPU: Intel Core i3-4160 3.6 GHZ COST: 111.38 EUR
■ MOTHERBOARD: ASROCK H81M COST: 54.00 EUR
■ CASE WITH PSU: Spire OEM1072B COST: 26.33 EUR
■ RAM: Kingston FURY Black - 8GB - DDR3 1600MHz CL10 COST: 83.25 EUR
■ GPU: GeForce GTX 750 COST: 0 (I already own this!)
■ HDD: HDD Seagate Barracuda 1TB, 7200rpm, 64MB, SATA 3 COST: 55.13 EUR
■ TOTAL COST: 337.09 EUR
So my question is, are these components compatible? And if you have time, can you offer some better alternatives for some of the components keeping the budget in mind?
