Is this all compatible?

[r36]

Just wondering if this budget gaming system is all compatible, because I'm about to purchase. I was also wondering if USB 3.0 is worth it, if so can someone please recommend a good USB 3.0 motherboard for around the same price. Thanks!

For a 445 Rana + 785G @ $112AR u not gonna get USB/SATA III so dun bother . That said why WD Green? I'd hot Samsung F3 500, Seagate 7200.12 500 or even WD Blue rather than WD Green. Alternatively have a look at this combo

How about now

Yep look good though i wouldn't personally go OCZ for RAM

 

[guanyu210379]

I would say no for OCZ RAM and no to OCZ PSU.
RAM : Corsair, G.Skill, Crucial, Mushkin, Kingston, Patriot.
PSU : Corsair, Tagan, Seasonic, Silverstone, PPC, Antec, Enermax.

i agree, and personally im not a fan of biostar mobos, i always stick with gigabyte, asus and msi

I got G.skill memory, and went with a 550w ocz power supply since I heard the modxstream 500w was unreliable. Also went with a asus mobo. How is it looking now?

Hope TS didn't go with that 630a mobo as

1.All Nvidia mobos under 980a/750a/GF8xxx are essentially AM2 mobos/tech with HT limitation when used with AM2+/AM3 chips

2. Still on PCIe gen 1.0/1.1

3.No respectable system builder would go with the above and 690G/740G even for el cheapo/rudimentary configs in many h/w forums @@ We also have a list of recommended h/w list drawn up here

What are you talking about?

He said you shouldn't buy the Asus M4N68T-M mobo in your above whishlist. The one in the combo is fine.
