Will this build work?

[Luke470]

I'm going to be building my very first PC very soon and just want to make sure all components are compatible and what not (would hate to buy a part and it not be able to work). Heres my build and just let me know if theres anything that isnt compatible or anything like that. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/hcXQf7

Yeah that should all work, but drop the thermal paste. The hyper 212 comes with some

Ok thanks and I've heard that the thermal paste that comes with the hyper 212 isn't very good and I plan to overclock so I need good quality thermal paste you thinks its worth it or not? (only $7)

Looks good! Already have an OS?

 

[Luke470]

Yes I already have the OS for my build

Then good to go, let us know how it turns out 😉

I have the 212 and I used the stock paste for about 2 years, I had my 2500k overclocked for maybe 8 months and never saw dangerous temps (or anything near them) but using a higher quality thermal paste can definitely help so if you want to for the $7 then go for it! I just wanted to make sure you realised it wasn't essential
