Is pcpartpicker reliable?

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/PnHPYJ This is my build.... It says that the parts are compatible, but I'm not sure. I'm a new builder, and I don't want to get all the parts and they not be compatible.... Do these parts look compatible?

Best site I've been to for building computers, the auto compatible filter is the best part And yeah, use the little link a bit on the top left side of your parts .

Your link is broken, use the link under "System Build" in the small text box that is called "Permalink" not web page's address.

It should look something like this http://pcpartpicker.com/p/CzbJRB

Pcpartpicker is very reliable, only CPU coolers and ram clearance, and other minor compatibilities need to be confirmed

pcpp is great, but do your own due diligence. Don't trust only one source.
And redo your link so we can see.

You need to post where it says permalink. But yah i have always found pcpartpicker to be great.

Why the Intel adapter? There already is an Ethernet controller on the motherboard.

You don't need that network adapter. Already included on the motherboard.
Get a different HDD. You have chosen a 2.5" hybrid drive, suitable for a laptop. A 3.5" desktop HDD at 1TB will be about 1/2 that price. And don't get a hybrid. Either SSD + HDD or HDD only.

I agree with this, the hybrid drives seem unreliable to me, and unnecessarily complicating. Its better to have two separate drives. Everything looks good tho, it is all compatible.

Ditto on the hard drive, something 7200rpm if it's an hdd. There's nothing 'super speed' about 5400rpm drives even in a laptop.
