You know it'd be really nice if you could put that extra minute into the post and use line breaks to not make it a huge PITA to read.

There is no GPU as far as I can see, and don't buy Anti Virus, you can get Microsoft Security Essentials for free which is good.

*edit* and apparently you made 2 threads aswell

this should be better

mobo won't fit in the case

norton is a performance killer

get a 2 tb hdd and and ssd instead of a 3 tb

YOU NEED A GRAPHICS CARD the amd FX cpu's DO NOT have integrated graphics

here is your motherboard vendor compatibility. Check out what parts fly, and if your part isn't on there then consider changing it to one that is on there.


I just want to mention though, most if not all parts will work with your mobo if you buy the right CPU etc. So be weary of compatibility, but if there is nothing saying you're not compatible (1156 instead of 1155 socket or something like that) then don't be affraid to go cheaper. Worst case scenerio usually is a bios flash and some new drivers plus a few settings change in the bios. Not bad at all.
