    Good morning jordanrox96 and welcome to CH

        From what you have listed you should be OK but I can not really give you 100% yes or no because not all the info was listed.

    I am assuming you are talking about 2 sticks of 4gig each for ram and the speed?  Voltage for the PS you should be OK.

    But a word of advice when you are looking for opinion on part(s) compatibility it would be easier to provide the specs and not the links.

    All the parts you have listed are made by companies I use on a regular bases. You may have other folks on CH that will give you there opinion. Good luck on your build.

    Let us know how you make out on the build, Mike   
    Statement of the day.  The IT person asked. What kind of computer do you have and the customer replied a white one why?

      I do agree with hartbeatmr i am not a computer geek but i have tried and made my own gaming PC your budget is comfortable mine was not that much. but i got a good deal and good service from ACNT. If you can give us your specifications then I can at least give it a shot and try and see what we can do. I also got a good free consultancy  from my computer provider:

        Mostly everything looks fine for me.
        If you had extra cash you could do RAID 0 with two SSDs for extra speed, or upgrade to twice the RAM.
        I am planning on building a gaming PC as well. I have already bought most components; I am planning on getting a tiny SSD for the OS and getting a couple of 3TB drives to store all the information I need.
