Here is my setup that I plan to get
A few problems Ive heard.

The Hard drive: Will it work with this Asus motherboard

The Memory: will I be able to get it go 1600Mhz as advertised? I see voltage needs to be setup is that hard to do? Ive never messed with bios before.

The Processor: I didn't see it listed on the Asus supported CPU list but Ive hear people got it to work.

Bottom line: will this motherboard fully support my components.

I already own a Corsair TX650w psu and a Radeon HD5670
Both less than 6 months old they will be used in this system.

HDD will work!
Memory should be able to run its rated speed. Setting the Voltage in Asus BIOS is usually well explained in the MB manual.
That CPU is new and is really a fake Phenom since it is set up like Athlon II without L3 Cache but should work.
I see nothing that is not compatible with your motherboard!

I came from a Athalon II X4 640 Propus to that Phenom II X4 840 Propus
Its what I originally wanted only a tad faster.

Yes it is fine just as long as you now it is just a faster AthlonII!
