Hey great people of the forum,
A few last questions before I buy it all..

Will these components fit together/work together:

AMD FX 4350 (CPU 4x 4.2Ghz)
Corsair Hydro Series H100i (CPU Cooler)
ASRock 970 Extreme4 (Mobo)
Cooler Master Elite 430 (Case)
ASUS GTX660 TI-DC2T-2GD5 (GPU - Already bought this one)
G.Skill Ripjaws - Geheugen (2x4 DDR3 1600 MHz)
ThermalTake Berlin 630Watt (PSU)

It is true that a 8 core CPU runs hotter then a 4 core CPU?
(I COULD make the AMD FX 4350 into an 8350, but afraid it runs hotter since I want it overclocked to at least 0.5Ghz, could always get it later though).

And speaking of OC - the CPU thermal design power is 125W whilst the motherboard can support 140W, does that mean with OC that I can't surpass it? (Still a newbie) Or does this not matter?

That about raps it up, thanks in advance!
Greetings, Mike.
