I've been planning on building a computer and I'm not sure if the parts I have in mind are compatible with each other so I thought I could ask here for advice.

You can't use a socket 1156 processor with a socket 1366 motherboard. Tell us what your budget is and if you have any parts you can reuse, and we'll come up with something for you.
My budget is 1100 euros. I sadly don't have any parts i can reuse. [editline]04:50PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Undomian;23968619]You can't use a socket 1156 processor with a socket 1366 motherboard.

If you need help finding the same/similar parts from another European site (since you quoted your budget in euros I presume your not English) then just ask
[QUOTE=FINLEY;23995454]Nice build, go for this one OP. If you need help finding the same/similar parts from another European site (since you quoted your budget in euros I presume your not English) then just ask[/QUOTE] Yeah, it sure is an awesome build. Too bad that I'd have to pay >1400e for it if i bought only from finnish stores (wich is where I live) It'd be great if there were any cheaper stores somewhere where they would ship here.. So any help finding better stores will be appreciated. I'll update if I find anything so no search in vain for any helpful soul out there :)
