use pcpartpicker. com It indicates board and CPU are compatible, but does not show raygo cases For about $10 More you could go to socket 1150 and a g 3220 which is a tidbit faster but at least it is a bit more future proof

However without knowing the memory you have l'can't say if it is compatible with the 1150 board

Thank you for your response. I only got to glimpse over it, but I'll read it thoroughly when I get back home. The reason I am looking at tigerdirect is because I will receive 10% any of my purchases.

Also I was attempting to find the MSI B75MA-E33 motherboard, but it was sold out everywhere I looked.

Just looked into the parts. I do think I'll take your advice, and go with those parts. My original intention was to spend as little as possible but it isn't a terrible idea to drop a bit more.

Is the motherboard you recommended compatible with a mini-atx case?

Would you recommend extended warranties with these parts?
