I am looking at how these items are compatible with each other.

CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117447
Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157511&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10440897&PID=5961731&SID=0
Video Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127784&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10440897&PID=5961731&SID=0

Will this CPU work with the motherboard? And can I use this video card with this CPU? The CPU supposedly has integrated graphics, but I've seen others with this type of combination, so I'm not sure. Would this be a good combination gaming wise?

Thanks
 
They all work together, no problem. The CPU has an integrated graphics core but it is a very weak one. For gaming the GTX 750ti is considered an entry-level GPU, but it will play most games on mid settings no problem.

For a bit more performance you could consider a R9 270x, which costs a bit more but performs much better.
 


Thanks for the reply. After looking again, the R9 270x is basically cheaper after rebate. ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202050&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10440897&PID=5961731&SID=0 ) Would you recommend this card instead of the GTX 750 TI? And I'm assuming it's compatible with the same CPU and Motherboard?

And not that I'm asking you to explain how it all works, but you're saying I can use the graphics card with the CPU even though it already has integrated graphics?

Thanks
 


Thanks! Does this mean I can use the integrated graphics card and the R9 270X at the same time?
