Hello all :)
If any of ye out there in computer land have a few minutes to spare, could ye tell me if the following components are compatible:

Intel Desktop Board DH55HC (http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/motherboards/DH55HC/DH55HC-overview.htm)

Crucial memory - 1 GB - DIMM 240-pin - DDR3 (http://www.dabs.ie/products/crucial...80000-4294953639-4294957152-42670000-50830000)

Intel Core i3 550 (http://www.dabs.ie/products/intel-core-i3-550-3-2ghz-socket-1156-l3-4mb-73QJ.html)

This case: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=97184

Also, any recommendations anyone has for a graphics card and PSU are most welcome.

compatible but not recommend

get Asus/ Gigabyte motherboard instead of intel

CPU - intel core i3 is easily overclock. cheaper core i3 530 is perform as good

case - no idea about its interior. no comment

The help is greatly appreciated daisymtc :)

Does this look like a better choice of motherboard?

I think I'm going to look for a new case as well.

The Gigabyte GA-H55-UD3H motherboard you are looking at is a decent choice to go with the Core i3 530 Processor in my opinion. I would get more than 1 gigabyte of RAM.

Here is 4 gigabytes of RAM that is much faster than the Crucial memory you are looking at:

Kingston HyperX 4 gigabytes (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800) RAM

Thanks for the tip 2048Megabytes, much appreciated :)
