Planning to get a 6850 later, will live with onboard graphics for now. Mostly word processing and internet use for now.

Total: $526.77

Trying to keep it around $500 not including graphics card.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions! Just wanted to make sure I didn't forget anything or buy incompatible parts.

Or should I go with this RAM? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231308
 
If u are staying near a Microcenter and if USB/SATA 3.0 is not a deal breaker

$170: 965BE + MSI 785G-E53

Yes everything is compatible to answer your question.

My only note is that if you plan to oc, or run SLI//crossfire It will be hard to fit a good aftermarket cooler over cpu, or fitting 2 Graphics card on a board that small.

I have a 6850 and 2 of them are definitely wider than those pcie slots
