So, I'm new to the whole building gaming PC's thing, so I just wanna know if these items will be compatible and will work well together each other.
If you have suggestions as to what I should/could change, please leave a comment, but keep the items in the price range of the ones I have listed.
Thank You.

Thanks! So will the ASRock motherboard be a better choice rather than the ASUS?
Also, do you think a CPU cooler may be necessary?
