Hi, this is my first post in TPU and also my first time building a computer and I have only picked out most of the important parts that is needed to build my new computer. I just want to know if everything is compatible and if it will fit in the ATX casing that i chose, and if the power supply is sufficient to run everything. Thanks. Suggestions are welcomed too! Thanks again.
My goal is to build a computer that will last me for at least 4-5yrs + gaming needs (Ex: Starcraft 2, etc...), and my budget is from $700-800, if possible. Thanks!
