Compatibilty questions

[wondermonkeys09]

I am a little unsure about whether my power supply, a RAIDMAX HYBRID 2 RX-530SS 530W ATX12V V2.2/ EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready Modular Power Supply, New Version with Build-in LED Fan On/Off Switch is compatible with my tower: Antec Three Hundred Illusion ATX Mid Tower Computer Case. If they are, my research will be complete.
This is the rest of my build:

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-D3
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Deneb 3.4GHz
Memory: Kingston HyperX Blu 4GB
Graphics card: GTX 560 Ti
Hard drive: Western Digital Blue
Optical Drive: Lite-On DVD Burner iHAS124-04

The Antec Three Hundred Illusion is a mid tower, it will easily fit an (almost any)ATX PSU.
So, Yes, your RAIDMAX HYBRID 2 would fit in the Antec Three Hundred Illusion.

Memory: Kingston HyperX Blu 4GB

Which model of Hyperx?
Is it one of the 1.65V or 1.5V models?

Your GA-970A-D3 MB is calling for 1.5V

No problem with PSU fitting Antec 300 case. But I'm not in love with the RAIDMAX RX-530SS choice.
I don't think it matches the quality of the other parts you've picked out.
Did you have any alternate PSUs on your short list?

Maybe something like this OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W Modular PSU
After rebate, with shipping charge, it's about $1 more than RAIDMAX RX-530SS based on prices @ NewEgg.

Don`t worry about it, all of my parts are compatible. (I checked, except for the power supply and case.) thanks though!

Honest, I'm not worried. I'm not about to whip out my credit card.

Well, I was just acknowledging an experienced person helping out a "youngster" beyond what the thread asked, but I will be sure not to do it again.

You're welcome.
