So I am working on setting up a PC to purchase and build, I already built one so I am using some parts from that. I just need someone to possibly help me double check that all the parts are going to be compatible.

List:
Case: http://tinyurl.com/7q7cfv2
Mobo: http://tinyurl.com/7wydpft
Processor: http://tinyurl.com/35mhrsp
GPU: http://tinyurl.com/csvy3gj
PSU: http://tinyurl.com/5jn5vj
Processor HeatSink: http://tinyurl.com/cfdwmc7

I already know the RAM is correct so I didn't bother to post that.
If someone could look over those and make sure it would all be compatible that would be great, I'm pretty sure it all is, it is always good to get a second viewpoint.

And in order to support the cause, 200points to the first person to verify it

Form factor for the case and mobo are the same: ATX

Socket on mobo and CPU are the same: LGA 1155 or Socket H2

GPU slot is compatible with mobo: PCI Express 3.0x16

PSU is a 20+4 pin, compatible with mobo @ 24 pin PSU connection.

Heatsink is comptaible with the LGA 1155 or Ivy Bridge chipset, so you're good there.

Yeah, everything checks out to me.

If you're spending that much on the rest of your kit, spend a bit more on a reliable PSU. The last thing you want is a shoddy PSU fucking your components.

I agree quite a lot here. That PSU claims only to be UP TO 85% efficient, while a decent one would have that as a minimum.

Be informed. This is the beating heart of your computer, and if it doesn't provide clean power to your hardware, then your hardware can slowly become damaged without even realising it.
