    Will my computer build work (Links)[Urgent]

    I don't think that ram will work with that motherboard, and if you want to get the most out of your 780, you will NEED a PCI-E 3.0 slot, this one is PCI-E 2.0. It should work for everything apart from the motherboard. If I was you I would swap your motherboard out for something bettter. maybe a...

    630 watt psu, need 6x8 pins for windforce 760

    You can buy a molex to 6pin and a 6pin to 8pin but sometimes that can be dangerous as the power may not be sufficient enough for your GPU. If you really want to be safe but keep it cheap I would reccomend upgrading to an hx/cx series of power supply. They both come with the right amount of...

    Swapping a Hard Drive

    It should definitely be possible assuming that you are only changing one hard drive and no raid features are enabled. Be sure to back up your hard drive somewhere, even if its a usb stick just in case though. Hope I helped, Maurice.

    Bitfenix Prodigy with Corsair RM550 PSU

    It can fit but the 160mm height may be abit high for a long graphics card such as the 7970 or 780ti windforce, apart you should definitely be ok. I personally recommend one of the efficient bewuiet PSU's, I have one and it is short, silent, powerful and enough to drive a good pc, thy are also...

    Is my boot time ok?

    Seeing as your computer has a HDD rather than an SSD it should be fine, as long as it boots up at all it should be fine. If you want to increase your boot speed I recommend a Kingston HyperX 3000 SSD or the Corsair Force series of SSD. They are extremely quick and you will not regret getting it...

    Decent Gaming on high?

    You will definitely be able to play a lot of games on high with the new 750ti, but if you want to get even more of a sold framate you will get a good 60fps or more at normal on most games, the other 4GB of ram shouldn't help that much, but it is always nice to have that much more for the...
