Will my power supply and my graphics card support eachother and run together?
I just bought a new power supply and a new graphics card, the graphics card being the amd radeon r9 290x and the power supply being the evga supernova 850w power supply 80 plus gold certified. Can these two support eachother and run together? I only have 8gb of ram. Please help, I just want to run all games on maximum graphics.

Alright awesome, Do you think you could find me an awesome combo like you just did except with and i7 processor combined with a really good motherboard like the one you linked?

Aright, the motherboard should fit. i5s are great, but if money is no object, definitely go with the i7.

I have an HP Pavillion p7-1439 PC. To be honest it looks like an normal case size, but do you suggest i buy the combo you linked me? You suggest a i5 instead of i7?

No idea what size case I have, how do i figure that out? is that the best motherboard I can get for the items I am buying? And I would like to maybe overclock in the future, I just don't know how to.


If you're adding these parts to a premade computer, than if you find out the computer model I can find the case size. If your adding it to a separate case, then it should say the model or size somewhere on the case. As for the motherboard, its all that you need. There are better motherboards, but there isn't any reason for you to get more than this. As for overclocking, there are great guides on the internet if you google it.

so what motherboard should I get do you think? As you can see the price isnt really an issue, I just want the best I can get. What motherboard would run with the Intel Core i7-4790K Processor ?


Something like this would be good. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asrock-motherboard-z97kill...

Its overclock capable if you want to do that in the future. You also have the option to add a second GPU.

The only thing you need to make sure of now is that the motherboard will fit in your case. What size case do you have?
