Please tell me if my build is right and all parts fit for the motherboard and case? Thanks!

The GPU is quite weak, get the HD7770 / R7-250X if possible. Personally, I'd even ditch 4GBs of RAM in favor of a better GPU like GTX750 or R7-260X.

Also, what about the power supply? I don't see it mentioned here.

 

What store are you buying from?

Oh, i'm sorry for that. Here's the power supply: AEROCOOL STRIKE-X 500W 80+ BRONZE MOD. I live in the Philippines :D And I don't have quite that much of budget for a 7770 or GTX 750. Btw man I'm still a beginner in computer building. Have I actually got the right parts for my motherboard?

 

The store im buying from is PC Express, it's a well known computer part shop here in the Philippines.

 

Can I also have some helpful tips from you? Thanks for the reply dude!!

 

For extra info: I just want a decent computer that can run most of the new games at low-med settings. I'll just get a GPU upgrade when I have enough money for it.

The PSU will do, albeit it's quite loud, and the 80Plus certificate is fake (it will not do Bronze, but Standard at most). You can save some cash by choosing this PSU:

http://pcx.com.ph/components/power-supply/thermaltake-smart-530w-80.html (250 PHP saved)

Or even this one:

http://pcx.com.ph/components/power-supply/corsair-vs450-450w.html (850 PHP saved)

 

As for the GPU, take a look at this: http://pcx.com.ph/components/graphics-card/powercolor-turboduo-hd7790-1gb-gddr5-128bit-ax7790-1gbd5-tdh-oc.html

Costs roughly the same as GTX650, and it's way faster. Definitely a much better deal.

Since yojo has already helped you as well as I would I have to ask what I would have anyway.

Why is this a poll?
