Building a new computer

[Guest]

Hi everyone! I am going to be building my first computer and had a question. Will these parts work together? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Motherboard: ASUS P8B75-V LGA 1155

Graphics Card: GIGABYTE GV-R797TO-3GD Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition 3GB 384-bit GDDR5

PSU: CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 600W

Processor: Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155

RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)

This computer will be mostly used for gaming.

Everything works together and you should easily be able to max just about every game, the 7970 is the best sub $500 card out there right now so that's a great choice there.

Thanks for the reply! Just wanted to make sure the parts were compatible with each other since this is my first time building a computer.

Those will work together.

Though you should probably drop the PSU and go with this one...

Corsair's Builder Series PSUs aren't that good.

What would be the best 600w PSU on Newegg that is in stock? Also what are the differences between Bronze and Gold power supplies? Thanks.

Get the non- ghz model.

The levels - bronze silver gold platinum - are just how efficient the PSU is the one I linked is 87-92% I think, meaning that 90% of the power going into the PSU goes to your hardware, the leftover 10% goes to heat.
