Are they compatibly?

[JakeyBxd]

I'm building a gaming PC and I have come up with a list of parts but i'm not sure of there compatibility!

Here are the parts:

CPU: AMD A10-6800K 4.1GHz Quad-Core Processor (£105.54 @ Aria PC)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler (£22.85 @ CCL Computers)
Motherboard: MSI FM2-A55M-E33 Micro ATX FM2 Motherboard (£35.46 @ Scan.co.uk)
Memory: G.Skill Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory (£52.99 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (£45.59 @ Aria PC)
Case: Thermaltake VL80001W2Z ATX Mid Tower Case (£36.72 @ Amazon UK)
Power Supply: Corsair Builder 430W 80 PLUS Certified ATX12V Power Supply (£35.49 @ Dabs)
Total: £334.64

Let me know what you know!

That's not really a gaming PC. the A8 series will work for some older, lower res games, but for anything modern, not so much.

Well what do you recommend?

I agree, this isn't a computer I see as being a gaming computer. The APUs aren't really meant for high end gaming. Now, if you were to tell us what you were playing, we might be able to recommend a more suitable build.

yeah... but i wouldn't use that motherboard with a 100W k series APU. the A55 chipset is a junk chipset best suited for HTPC. if you plan to overclock you'll probably need to get a A85X chipset board, one with a heatsink on the mosfets. If you have no plans to overclock then you don't need to get a k series apu, and you probably will be ok with any chipset a75 motherboard.

and this won't be much of a gaming system... 720p, sure you'll game fine; it will struggle at 1080p though.

Well does minecraft to a very high quality without any lag eg: 640 bit
Cube world
Starmade

This will be for recording to then upload to YouTube

PS I don't much about PC's and I need it to be fairly cheap below £ 500
