Hey all i have just purchased some new hardware but because i'm a total nub i don't really know if everything is compatible. maybe someone in the know could look it over and let me know if i made a mistake somewhere. thank you kindly!

so, do you think i should have gone with a PCIe 2.0 video card? Should i have chosen different RAM? I looked all over ASUS dot COM, and i couldn't find any RAM recommendations for the P5N-T. most of the information i read doesn't make sense to me yet. This is my first build! Any recommendations you have are welcomed! Thank you again!!!
