Hello Everyone, I'm looking into building my first computer but I'm not sure if everything I'm looking at is going to work well together. So far these are the parts I've been looking at:

Case: NZXT Phantom

CPU: AMD FX-9590 4.70 GHz Eight-Core AM3+ CPU 8MB L2 Cache & Turbo Core Technology

Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z AMD 990 ATX w/ UEFI Bios, ROG Connect, SupremeFX III Audio, Intel GbLAN, 4 PCIe x16, 2 PCIe x1

Video Card: ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z AMD 990 ATX w/ UEFI Bios, ROG Connect, SupremeFX III Audio, Intel GbLAN, 4 PCIe x16, 2 PCIe x1

Power Supply: Corsair CX750 750W 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Hard Drive 1: 1TB Samsung 840 EVO Series SATA-III 6.0Gb/s SSD - 540MB/s Read & 520MB/s Write

Hard Drive 2: I have a Seagate Barracuda 1TB that I want to move from my current computer as well.

So as of right now I'm just curious if all these parts will work together. I don't want to buy them all then have 1 not work with the others. Any other advice would also be much appreciated since this is going to be the first computer I put together myself. Thanks for your time.

ok, well you posted the mobo specs under the video card, and i strongly suggest you do not get the fx 9590, you will get more performance at a lower cost with intel, and depending on your budget and usage, the i5 4670k, i7 4770k, or xeon E3-1230 v3. what is your budget and usage? we can help build you a pc :p

Well I want a very top of the line PC, so I was looking to spend around $2k on it.
