Hey,

Just a quick question...

Would I be able to use an ASUS M5A99X EVO mobo, with an AMD Phenom II x6 1100T BE with the set up on this link?

http://www.ebuyer.com/220862-coolermaster-cm690-ii-lite-with-coolermaster-gx-650w-psu-special-offer-bundle-rc-692-kka3

Would there be any problems with power distribution? Not too great with that stuff, this is my first proper build. There is also an offer for 8GB of RAM on that page too, would I also be able to get that without any power issues? Or space issues with the processor and retail fan? (because the RAM has heatsinks on it)

Cheers
 
not a fan of the case looks, and coolermaster psu's suck, the best brands to get are corsair/antec/pc p&c/silverstone/seasonic/xfx

and if you don't already have that cpu, it has no benefits over the 955 in gaming, only fsx uses the 2 extra cores it has.
 
I didn't like the look of it myself at first but I kinda do now. I've got my eye on it because of the price as well otherwise I won't be able to afford the rest I'm on a budget.

That aside, would you be able to tell me if it is all compatible?
 
I'm concerned more about the motherboard and the PSU. I'm still not great on power supplies and power phases even after reading up quite a bit.

Would the PSU be compatible with that mobo?

And would the RAM with the heatsinks fit along side the processor fan without getting in the way?

Sorry for the noob questions.

Thanks
 
the ram heatsinks aren't that big, as long as you don't gat a ram fan which is a complete waste in my opinion, and like i said above, although the psu will work fine with the mobo, it is a low end p.o.s., go for the ones i listed in my first post
