Hi, I'm planning on building my first rig and I'd just like an experienced persons opinion as to whether the following components are compatible. I'd also appreciate any suggestions for different components that may suit my project better. Also, please let me know if there's anything i've missed.
I apologize in advance if this thread is in breech of any rules, If it's in the wrong place, or If I'm frustratingly nooby.
Here's a link to my newegg wishlist:

And a link to the PSU: http://www.megabuy.com.au/corsair-new500w-corsair-cx-500v2-atx-power-supply-80-plus-120mm-fan-2x-pci-e-5x-sata-4x-p266584.html
Approximate Purchase Date: Before the end of July
Budget Range: $1200 ish
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Mostly gaming, also Blu-Ray movies and general internet browsing
Country: Australia
Overclocking:No
SLI or Crossfire: Yes, but not at the moment
Additional Comments: I won't actually be buying from newegg, as I live in Australia. Obviously I would like the quietest computer possible but I don't really care about that. I am yet to decide on a monitor, keyboard or mouse.
