I ordered pc components over ncix.com, and i received everything except my processor, which is on backorder. here is the stuff

- nzxt apollo atx case
- gigabye ma-770 ud3
- TX650w corsair power supply with 52A 12v rail
- GSKILL 4gb ddr2 800 ram 2 sticks
- western digital SATA hdd 500gb 7200 rpm
- XFX HD4850 (yea theyre starting to make ati cards now)
- LG 22x cd/dvd writer combo
- Phenom 9950 black edition 2.6ghz processor

ive got everything installed except the cpu which i dont have yet. i want to see if all the components work and make sure i dont have to RMA anything before i get my cpu so that im not stuck with a faulty pc when i finally get my processor. can i hook my monitor up and see if the computer works? obviously it wont be able to install windows or do anything but i wanna see if the video card works and displays something, and see if my hdd works. or what else can i do to check my other stuff for functionality?
