It is all compatible but i have just one thing to say and that graphics card you have selected is really rubbish, don't be fooled by the 1gb memory it's only ddr2 and that graphics card is simply not worth it, that's if your going to do some gaming on the rig if not then it's okish lol. if you can afford to get a Q6700 then may i suggest you choose another bundle with a Q6600 and some memory that way it will be cheaper but very powerful and overclockable at the same time, then i suggest you get your self a Ati 4850 or if you want to go Nvidia then i suggest you get the 9600GT, these cards are way better then the one you chose.

sorry if i went on a bit but just thought you might want to get the best out of your rig, hope that helps.

I don't actually know if it will, i never used it before and secondly it doesn't state on the website how it connects to the mobo.

I double checked everything and i found that your mobo has only one IDE header and 4 SATA headers so i suggest you pick your self a SATA compatible hard drive. The hard drive you have chosen is an IDE hard drive, SATA is better because it's faster and you got 4 slots of it so might as well use them. As for everything else looks fine.
