Ok, I'm planning on building a new computer. Here's the parts I've chosen.

Graphics card: SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6870 $159.99
Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 $134.99
Proccessor: Intel Core i3-2100 $119.99
RAM: 2 CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB $46.99x2
SSD: Samsung 830 64GB $99.99
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB $89.99
Power: Antec EarthWatts $44.99
CD: MSI 18X $19.99
Case: COOLER MASTER HAF X $179.99

Total: $943.01

Mouse: RAZER Abyssus $29.99
Keyboard: Kensington K72357US $25.99
Monitor: ASUS VH242H $159.99
Wifi Adapter: IOGEAR GWU523 $22.99
Windows 7 $100

Total: $1281.97

I'm wondering if they are Compatible and if the outcome would be good, and if it's worth $1281. Thanks in advance.

PS: It's obviously a gaming computer. I mainly want it to run Minecraft on max settings with max HD TexturePacks.
 
you can trim quite a bit.

OCZ Agility 4 128GB is $75
why are you getting an overclockers Z77 board with a locked chip? you'd do far better with a i5-3470 and a B75 or H77 motherboard, for about the same price.

8 GB is enough, don't get 16, and get a matched pair of 4 GB sticks sold as a set.

instead of the 6870, get a 7850 1GB for about the same price, or a 2gb model for aboutr $20 more

Yeah, you can lower the price quite a bit.

Get a cheaper case, get cheaper RAM, and get a cheaper SSD. Oh yeah, get a better CPU, an i5 2500k should do good after you cut down all the other stuff.

Also, why do you need 16GB of ram? What are you going to be doing on it?
