they are compatible but i would get a different case With more fans. i would get a different Board than Asrock as they tend to be less reliable. i would also get a after market cpu cooler so you could overclock good

You may want to think about a different PSU. I heard the CX series Corsair PSU's used poor capacitors. I could be wrong though. Someone better in the know can chime in on that.

I was referring to the power supply and not the case. I have no clue about the case. Usually the case a personal choice.

I wouldn't be a good source for that suggestion really. However, I do know EVGA G2 series power supply (PSU) is a good one to go with. I just ordered a 750W EVGA G2 myself and in the process of putting that into my new build. It is a bit pricey.

i agree, build is unbalanced. judging from the parts i'll assume your budget is 1000USD so i'll build from there. and also assume your desired resolution is a single 1080p @ 60 Hz.

well is your max budget $1000 USD? if so, then not without lowering you GPU which is essentially more important than anything else. also, if this is just to play minecraft, you don't need any of those parts, and could get just as much performance for half the price. it would be the difference between 100 FPS and 300 FPS (which wouldn't matter most displays are 60 Hz meaning 60 FPS max).
