Is this pc compatible? I have never built a pc before.

I was told there are 3 issues with my current pc part list by a friend. Are the parts compatible because PC Partpicker says there is only one issue so far. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/qN9Dyc

Yeah it is compatible, however I would make these changes:

Here you'll have a better motherboard with a newer chipset and a bigger quality SSD. Regarding the powersupply, this build does not require 750W at all and besides even though the CX-series is decent for sure, this XFX unit build by Seasonic will have an appropriate wattage, 550W, and be absolute quality. It will last you many years.

While the parts will work, you are running the risk that your motherboard bios will not support the cpu without a bios update. In order to update the bios, you would need a fully compatible cpu to begin with, then upgrade to the Haswell.

As a personal note, you are dropping over a grand into a new rig, but are choosing one of the lamest motherboards around. If you are going to spend that kind of money to build a gamer, do yourself a favor and get a motherboard that will allow you to get the most out of your investment.

Thanks for the advise
