I'm going to be doing a new build here - primarily a gaming/video editing/rendering machine - but my main concern is everything I have picked out compatible with each other? For example, will I have compatibility problems with my motherboard and the amount of fans in the case I choose? If anyone could tell me if all the things I have chosen will work fine, I'd appreciate it! Also, any tips in general would be appreciated!

All Windows 7 Ultimate has is language changing, over the Professional version.

You want a PSU from Corsair, XFX, PC&P, Seasonic.

You can live with a good Z77 mobo (Asrock Extreme4/6) and the i7 3770K unless your really doing extreme editing.

I suggest the Noctua NH-D14 heatsink/fan. It performs almost as well as watercooling. ALMOST.

Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 16GBs (2x8GB) 1600 is what you want for RAM.

I prefer the MSI Power Editon 670. Better cooling, features and a way higher boost clock out of the box.

They will lol. Even though hes missing 2 parts, everything he picked is compatible. Its very hard to get uncompatible parts nowadays since a lot of parts manufacturers list what their hardware needs.

This isnt a place for trolling kid.

If I were a liar by any chance, all the people Ive helped wouldve have come back raging at this forum, creating threads about how their PC wouldnt work.

Now, tell me. Which parts would NOT work together, I dare you.
