Hey this is the first time i'm building my own desktop. I've chosen all the components but I would feel better if I could get someone who has done this before to tell me if all my components should be fine together. I did some research on my own and have chosen the current parts based on my understanding of pc hardware.

If anyone has suggestions or comments that would be very helpful. Also, I have not yet decided on RAM so suggestions for that would be great as well.

CPU: Intel Core i5-2500 Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz

MOBO: ASUS P8P67 LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Hard Drive: HITACHI Deskstar 7K3000 HDS723020BLA642 (0f12115) 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s
