Solution
its compatible, though you might want to change the motherboard to the asus sabertooth 990FX as that has PCI E gen 3, instead of GEN 2 - I know most conventional graphics cards still aren't bottlenecked, but we're coming close to the limit and in a few generations, you'll want gen 3. But other than that it all looks ready, even for future crossfire.

(I am glossing over the fact its all amd, and therefore its inefficient in power and its going to be hot as balls due to the graphics card.
