Well...I need to know if the motherboard is compatible with the case. I know itll fit, but will all the hookups work. Then, if you can, could someone say if this is all compatible, as in, will it work when I hook it all up? I think it is...but im paranoid and spending alot of money to find out something won't work kinda sucks.
The case is the Antec 900

I am also getting heat sinks with the ram, but, am I forgetting anything or is anything incompatible? I know I don't have the hard drive or dvd drive listed, partly cause I don't know where/if they have them. The dvd drive is new, but the hard drive is IDE...for now. I have to save more then Ill put in a SATA drive in a few months. Thanks for any information

What do you mean heatpipe? I thought the cooling stuff came with the CPU, like the fan and heatsink

Well...this is the maximum I have money for right now...you know...saved and all. I will upgrade to probably an 800 watt power supply later, like the Enermax Galaxy. Ill also upgrade the HDD later, probably have a 40gig SATA and 2 500gig SATA drives for storage...cause I store alot. Lol...But yeah, so this should work then. And any suggestions on upgrading on stuff later, like the power supply and hdd I shall do, but everything else looks good?

It all looks good to me. The only suggestion i'd make with the serious kinda power you're gonna be pulling is get a 550 or 600 watt power supply...cause that vid card is gonna pull a good chunk of power, and if you're case is underpowered you'll have a lot of heat issues.
Everything matches up, go for it and have fun with it!

yes your parts will work together, this is gonna make a really awesome rig!! but it will really help if you put a new hard drive in there, you will be surprised how much of a difference a good fast hard drive can make . . . Antec cases are standered, so use standered fittings and connectors, asus mainboards also use standered atx mountings and connectors so you will have no problem there!
Good luck!

Make sure you get something to cool the CPU, like a decent heatpipe.

well i am not going to check the sites all you have to do is read the mainboard spec's and it will tell you what it supports.
