Hi, I would like to check is my PC compatible with some new and some old hardware.
I have old: graphic card GeForce GTS 8800 640MB, psu Fortron550w, and the new equipment is:
Asrock B85 Pro4 atx, Kingston Hyperx blue 4GB ddr3, Intel Core i5 4430.
Or any suggestions?

They all look compatible. Depending on how old it is you might want to also consider a new PSU. They do age and everything else depends on it. And if you are considering upgrading your graphics card in the future you might want to go to a higher power rating depending on what your upgrade path will be.

I was asking this because I already have PSU 300W, but I don't use this graphic card. I wanted to make my hardware a little better, without spending no more money. Maybe saving money in this case can get worse because of PSU. Thank u for your answer.
