Hi,
as the title asks are these parts compatible? I'm building a gaming PC from scratch and i'm pretty new at this. If there are any recommendations on the PSU as I don't have one yet or on the specs, all would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

A new Z97 MB and the best CPU that you can install in it plus the fast memory and 32GB's of it. The GTX 970 GPU is really decent too. I have one and am impressed with it.

Another thought, you will probably have to OC the CPU some to get the full 2400MHz out of your memory. Have fun!
Those components should work OK for you. You will need a Pro version or higher of windows to install more than 16GB of memory. Plus you will have to set up the drive with a GPT format instead of the normal MBR type. Over 2TB requires a GPT type formatted drive.

Hi,
Thanks for the advice, and what makes it an OK setup? If you could explain that would be great.
Thanks,
Sam
