yes they are, but id spend a extra 10 dollars to get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139048 to ensure you have enough power in case you OC or upgrade in the future. but otherwise it will work fine.

 

[cin19]

The 500W PSU should be fine, read the review. http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/amd_radeon_hd_7850_and_7870_review,7.html
But how about add the cpu cooler, ZALMAN CNPS10X OPTIMA http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835118099 and the review http://www.frostytech.com/articleview.cfm?articleid=2658&page=4

Then your PC is set.

 

[PutNameHerePl0x]

I'm not gonna OC just yet, I wanna wait a bit. And the motherboard is compatible with the case?

 

[cin19]

The case is ATX Mid Tower and the MB is ATX format so that they are compatible.

 

[Jack Revenant]

I'm not gonna OC just yet, I wanna wait a bit. And the motherboard is compatible with the case?

I assume you're asking if it will fit? If so, the answer is yes. The Phantom 410 will fit anything up to and including an ATX.

 

[PutNameHerePl0x]

But the motherboard said it was 9.6 inches wide and the case is 8.46 wide?

It's not ten it's twenty.

 

[Jack Revenant]

But the motherboard said it was 9.6 inches wide and the case is 8.46 wide?

Odd. The 410 is rated for ATX form-factor motherboards, which are all of those dimensions. Perhaps the motherboard is mounted vertically? I must admit, I've never owned or used that particular case, nor any of mid tower, in fact.

 

[HillBillyAsian]

But the motherboard said it was 9.6 inches wide and the case is 8.46 wide?

you're looking at the wrong demensions. the motherboard is 9.6inchs wide going from the back panel to the drive bays. the case is 8.46 wide going from one side of the case to the other (looking straight at it from the front panel)

10 dollars without the promo code, the choice is yours to make, 500w psu to make it work today and not work down the road if you upgrade to more HDs, a better gpu or OC, or spend a few more dollars on something you know will power your pc for awhile to come. If you don't plan on upgrading the 500w psu will do you just fine. remember even having just 6 fans in the case uses 3-4 amps, and lets say you have a 40A 12v rail, whats availabe is lets say 35A x12v = 420w, your cpu is 125w twp, and your 7870 can pull upwards of 225~W(max load) so that right there would be your 350W, thats not factoring in any OC as well as your HD. Like i said it will work and heck even with a mild overclock, but with electronic degradation it might not last that long.

You are wrong. Look at the picture in the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146087
The MB will fit in the case.

I plan on getting a new one eventually, just not right now as I spent my budget and more.

What you may be missing, from his perspective, is that the width of the case is 8.46 inches. This is the source of his confusion.

Unfortunately, a lot of folks here are armchair designers who've never actually assembled a computer. For what it's worth, I do design my own rigs, but a neuromuscular condition makes my fingers less useful for fine manipulation than I'd like when working with expensive electronics.
