I want to build a gaming computer using these parts, want to know if they are compatible because it my first build, and if your experianced suggestions would be great.:confused:

It all looks good, but can I suggest you post your use-case and budget. There's some poor quality parts there and the boys here will probably be able to design a better system for you.
 
I agree with Okeydokey. Your PSU and motherboard is poor quality. Post budget and we can configure a better system :)
 
The i7 is a waste of money when it comes to gaming. Or... not exactly waste, but the i5 will be identical in performance and cheaper.
I generally recommend AMD based system for $700 and below, simply because AMD offers overclocking (free CPU performance!) where Intel don't.

AMD FX-6300: $120
Gigabyte 970A-UD3: $110
Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo: $40

That's $270 versus $275 if you take advantage of the sale.
I would, however, still recommend a third party CPU cooler, since the stock one is bad.
The Intel option will still be superior to the AMD - but you can't overclock it.
The motherboard you get is quite nice as well. I had my Asus P8P67, switched to the P8Z77-V LX, overclocked my CPU to 4.8GHz and then switched back to P8P67 at a later time.
 
PSU - Corsair 430W - $40 (after rebate) - More 12V rail amperage and better quality by far.

RAM - 8GB (single dim is better) - $54 - same latency and cheaper.

DVD drive - $17 - these days almost unnecessary - get the cheapest you can.

Case - Thermaltake V3 Black Edition - $43 (with shipping) - Tool less design, bottom mounted psu, better cooling set up, takes both micro and standard ATX motherboard. Better all round.

CPU - Intel Core i5-3350P - $179 - Quad Core, low powered, will own the 6300/6100 from AMD in every way.

Mobo - GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD3H - $144 - Fantastic mobo, WAY better than the one you originally chose.

Monitor - stick with the one you chose. - $70

HDD - WD 1TB drive - $70 - for the extra 15 bucks get the 1TB

Wireless Adaptor - D-Link DWA-548 Wireless N300 Desktop Adapter - $29 - don't get an internal one, they're designed for laptops and aren't great. Get a proper PCIe one with antennas.

Graphics Card - ASUS HD7790-DC2OC-1GD5 Radeon HD 7790 1GB - $120 - this card will RAPE the GTX630.


This machine all up costs $705 without monitor (as you indicated). It will play all games on high/med and absolutely perform fantastically.
 
Its rubbish compared to the one I have outlined above. You don't need a 750W PSU and the two components that matter in gaming (CPU and GPU) are garbage.

The system I have designed above will be double or triple the performance and is cheaper.
 
Okeydokey has compiled a pretty good system. I would however change three things.
The case I would swap with an NZXT Source 210 with a window. It's $2 more and actually has cable management.
This case is heavily praised by reviewers as being an $80 case disguised in the sub-$50 market.
The motherboard I would swap out with a cheaper one. You don't need a high-end overclockable board when you buy a non-overclockable CPU.
So I would suggest the MSI H77A-G43. Great value-board, will still look good with your side-window at almost half the price of the Gigabyte board, and you won't see 1% difference in performance.
The Gigabyte board is very good, but you pay a lot to enable overclocking.
Take the money you've saved and throw that at the GPU.
Maybe see if you can squeeze the budget to fit a Sapphire HD 7850 2GB at $145.

I actually don't know. I know for a fact that it can be the brand, because I've seen it with XFX and Gigabyte, but I can't use Newegg since I live in EU.
