Hello everyone
Please bear with me as this is my first post on these forums, so I'll try to get the template right but I'm sure I'm bound to screw it up somehow, lol. I'm working on building my first computer from parts, and I've got a few questions I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out with...
1: Will the parts I've listed/linked below all work together? It would be truly disappointing to buy them all and realize too late that I messed something up big time and something like the RAM and the Motherboard just don't fit, or some such.
2: Will the 650 Watt PSU I've linked be sufficient for the power needs of this machine?
3: Will the fans provided in the case I've linked, coupled with the Heatsink I've linked, provide adequate cooling needs?
4: Is there anything I've blatantly forgotten to include in this list?
Thank you for any help you might be able to provide!
