Help with first PC build
So i want to build a custom PC with some specific components and i need to know a few things.
1. Are they all compatible?
2. Can this site or any other build this PC for me?
3. Can i get this in the UK?
The components i am looking at are:
Motherboard:
MSI AM3 AMD870 4xDDR3 GBE LAN RAID 2xUSB3.0 ATX Motherboard
CPU:
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition
RAM:
Corsair CMZ4GX3M2A1600C9 4GB 1600MHz CL9 DDR3 Vengeance Memory Two Module Kit
Video Card:
EVGA Nvidia GTX550Ti 1GB 192-Bit 3D Ready Graphics Card
Hard Drive:
~ANY (500GB)
Optical Drive:
~ANY
Case:
Cooler Master HAF 922M ATX Black Mid-Tower Case
Power Supply:
OCZ 600W ModXStream Pro Power Supply
I want the PC to be suitable for gaming on at least medium settings.
My budget is around £500.
I can build the computer myself but if i can get it pre-built for a good price that will be better.
If these parts are incompatible or unobtainable can anybody suggest some similar spec ones.
Feel free to ask any questions and any information is appreciated.

That sounds good, thanks for the help.
what is the best way to transfer files from my current hard drive onto the one with this build?

depending on what type it is, you may be able to just stick it right in and install it, the case should have a few HDD slots
if its IDE or SATA-I then you may need an adapter SATAII should be fine though, or SATAIII
