Here are some concerns I have!

1.PC Part Clicker said these parts are compatible, could someone double check? (Not literally go on the website though).
2. PC Part Clicker said that these parts would use an estimated 341W so is a 500W PSU enough?
3. Are there any major differences that would affect the performance of my PC? (Eg. There is a low end item that will limit the other items performances?)
4. Do you have any better options that are around the same price and do the same thing?


That's it! Thanks for reading :)
