Will all the components work?

Hi I am planning on buying an new computer here are the specs:

ASUS HD 5870 1GB
Intel Core i7 860 2.0Ghz
ASUS Maximus Formula III 1156-S
Corsair dominator 4GB 1600Mhz
Cooler Master HAF 932
Corsair TX850W
Western Digital 750GB

Yeah all of those should be compatible. I would check the QVL though to check if your RAM is supported by the motherboard. Usually it doesn't matter too much though.

I think the i7-860 is at 2.8 GHz, not 2.0 GHz. You should check that also. If your processor clocks at only 2.0 GHz it may slow down your graphics card. But yeah, everything is compatible.

dominator's are overpriced look into gskill and ocz ram, the formula is a good board but what has it got wich the asus p55 pro/evo or msi p55 g65/g80 or gigabyte ud4/ud5 hasnt got?
