Hi guys ^above^ is the build i am going to do but before i buy it all i just have a few questions.

1. will this all work together? I've checked and am pretty sure but just to be safe :)

2. what sort of cabling will i need to get with all these parts?

All feedback welcome, please make any suggestions as to how i can make it better but remember i need to keep under my $600 budget, thanks!
 
If the motherboard has the same CPU socket as the CPU and supports the same speed of RAM, you're good to go. Only thing is I would buy a different power supply. The one you chose is of bad quality. Go for an Antec, corsair, xfx, silverstone, or seasonic. And the two graphic cards you posted are about the same exact thing.
 
go for an am3+ so you can go bulldozer later without new mobo too to save about 100+ bucks, and i's save on the case on a low budget to get a decent psu, and the ones he listed are the best, there are plenty more good brands and all, but they are the best and are going to work, next to no chance of failures or doa any time soon, always possible, but you're safe with them and th'll take care of you and your parts.also an i3 will serve you better/faster, but you'd need and lga1155 mobo and it wont be used by anything newer but still got the other sb's
