Are these parts compatible?

[Tehdude]

Hey everyone, just a quick, simple question. I'm pretty new at this. Will these parts work together?


Asus AM3 M4A78T-E S/V/L 5200MT/S
OCZ 4GB DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz Dual Channel Gold Series Memory
Samsung F1 500gb 3.5" Sata2 7200rpm 32mb
Amd Athlon II X4 630 Sam3 Box/95w 2800
Club 3d ATI RADEON HD 5770 1GB

I think all the sockets and slots are fine. The ram will work only at 1333 without overclocking, but that's fine. Also hoping that 550W PSU is enough.

Yes. However, I wouldn't get OCZ RAM. OCZ has a lot of compatibility issues with a large number of boards and CPUs. It's better to just avoid them and pick up some G.Skill, Mushkin, Kingston or Corsair (whichever is cheapest).

550W is more than enough to power this.

Thanks for the fast reply, man. I'll look into the ram thing.

The drive you are looking for is the Samsung Spinpoint F3, as it is one of the fastest drives around, whereas the F1 is slow.

What power supply (specifically) are you thinking about? You don't want to get a bad/cheap one.

CIT 550W Gold 12Cm Silent Atx Power Supply

Got a bit cheap there and grabbed the lousiest one. Pretty short on budget. Hopefully it won't burn down the house in the first day.

Wow. That's got to be the most horrible PSU I've ever seen.
