hi all, i am looking to build my first pc in the next week or so, and i have been saving up for most of the summer in order to build it.

the first thing i would like to ask, is whether the components i have chosen are compatible, will fit in the case and wether the psu is enough for over clocking and extra graphics cards.

Hi Hagrid

I would suggest you repost in the Homebuild section of the forum - that area is more frequently visited by people with the expertise you want.
