So as my store bought laptop grows weaker everyday, I need a new computer I've decided to build one! This is what I could draw up so far. Case: Clipeus :ECA3212-BL : Enermax CPU: 1155 : i5 : 3470 : Intel MB: 1155 : ATX : DH77KC : Intel HD: 500GB : SATA : WD5000AAKX Blue RAM: DDR3 : 8GB/Kit : PC12800 : HyperX Graphics Card: PCI-E : NVIDIA : GTX650Ti OC : 2GB PSU: 650W : GX : 650-ACAA : Cooler Master First of all, I'm not quite as implemented into the technological age as I should be given my age, and there are few questions I need answered. Will everything be compatible with each other? Will RAM,Graphics card and CPU go into the motherboard? Will it run games? Is 650 Watts enough power?
Yes, your CPU is compatible with the motherboard which is compatible with your RAM. I'd prefer a different manufacturer of motherboard ~ ASUS, Gigabyte or MSI. If all the items are good (in some cases you can get bad hardware, you can just RMA it and get it replaced) they will work perfectly. For the GPU, yes it will run games at high/ultra settings, (I personally use a GTX 650 Ti), you might want to try MSI , EVGA, Gigabyte, or ASUS GPU as they base it from NVIDIA's reference design but has tweaks in performance and cooling design.
