So this is my first computer I am building and I had two of my friends help me get the parts to make sure I don't end up frying the thing when I first turn it on. But I'm just wanting to get more feedback to make sure everything is in check. Here is the list of parts and the URL to newegg and that particular part's page.

Please tell me if anything doesn't look quite right. I'm not looking for anything better because that was in the range of my budget I'm just seeing if it will work right. Also if you have any tips for putting it together those would be helpful as well. Thanks!

All is compatible :)

Here are just some of the things I checked:
  • Motherboard's form factor will fit in case
  • Power Supply has correct PCI-E connector
  • RAM speed is compatible with Mobo
  • Power Supply is powerful enough
  • CPU is compatible with motherboard

Don't forget a CD/DVD drive and your Operating System.

Also if you have any tips for putting it together those would be helpful as well
