Hello all I am in the process of building a new computer and would like a little help if any one can offer some.
These are some of the parts I'm looking at.

Intel Core i7 3770K/3.50GHz/8MB CACHE/LGA1155 Ivy Bridge
Asus P8H77-M PRO P8H77-M PRO.H77 4xDDR3 2xPCI-E16 GBL SATA3 USB3.0 RAID DSP HDMI DVI VGA uATX
Kingston 8G(2x4G) KHX1600C9D3P1K2/8 GDDR3 1600MHz CL9 HyperX
Western Digital 1TB SATA3 HDD 32M Caviar Blue
Gigabyte GT520 1GB DDR3 DVI HDMI
LGE CH12LS28 12XBD/16DVDBlack Blue Ray HD Combo Retail
CoolerMaster RC360 Elite Black with 420W + HD Audio

Does this all seem compatible?
 
NEW PSU!yeah, what is the pc gonna be used for?For rendering, or server, keep i7 and GPU, but if for gaming, get i5 and better gpu like a 560 or 6870.
 
Thanks for the replies,
The computer will be used for video editing and 3D/PTF Layer file editing among other things.

Everything looks good to me apart from that power supply. Get a Corsair CX 500 if you plan to stick with the 520. You may want a stronger video card for rendering anyway, something like a GTX 550 Ti or 560 Ti perhaps. A 520 will do though.
 
You may wanna go to 16GB for 3D modeling. Better to be safe than sorry.

And I'd stick with the 520, and upgrade later to a professional 3D modeling card. They can be quite expensive, though.

Also, I'd get a full ATX board. You got a microATX, which would have less features and run hotter.
 
Thanks for that Claptonman. What about this MoBo.
