I've been putting together a desktop on TigerDirect.com
I'm pretty happy with the build. I just want to check with you guys if it the parts are 100% compatible with each other.
I'd like to add that I already have a 500 GB Seagate HDD and a Windows 7 Ultimate 32x license, along with a DVD ROM Drive, and DVD-RW, the hard drive is SATA, and the DVD Drives are both IDE. I guess I will need a SATA DVD Drive. I would just mention that for those of you who will check if the PSU is compatible/has enough ports.
I mainly need to know if the desktop is 110% compatible, I am mainly worried if the PSU doesn't have enough ports to the rest of the components. So, if someone can comfirm for me whether it does or not, that will seal the deal. Thanks!
Here are the links to the parts and the prices:

Total is 549.99 USD, including TAX, and shipping.
I don't want to spend anymore then that. But I'm open to ANY suggestions.
I'm looking for a high performance desktop with gaming capabilities, I know.. my budget is too low... but on paper, everything looks great to me, but then again, I don't have much experience with building desktops.
Also, does the combo mb and cpu come with TIM? Or do I have to buy that seperate, do you guys recommend me getting a better thermal compound with this Phenom II CPU? I don't plan on overclocking it. But I might if I find out that the CPU is great for that purpose.
Thanks,
If I forgot to mention anything important. Please ask me
