Hello!

I'm a French student, and since I'm French I might have some difficulties being understood (Editor's Note: No you won't!).

Since I'm a student I can't spend more than €700 for a new computer. I do want to buy a new one, the one I'm using now is a real pain. I want to build it to save money, so I asked some friends to find a setup with different hardware pieces. They managed to find one and it's worth 670 € which is cheap enough for me.

Here are the links to the pieces:

Can you tell me if this setup is good and most importantly compatible with the rest of the hardware?

Thanks! :)

yes your hardware is compatible, but nor the motherboard, change the motherboard that support socket LGA 2011 and then match it with your memory card type..

If I'm reading this right, your Mobo is an 1155 socket and the i7 is a 2011. Also, being in french, I'm not sure if the cooler will work on a 1155 or a 2011 socket.Check out this site. PC part picker. It will figure out the compatibility for you. And it will price everything too. though, I'm not sure it will price it out in Euros.'Good luck!!
