    They'll all be compatible, yes, but the performance will be less than stellar.
    I suggest an i3 2100 + H61 Motherboard from Intel. This should actually save you some money to put toward a better graphics card. Don't shell out that much on RAM when your other components are weaker.

    First thing, what's your budget.

    Second, Bulldozer is a waste of money at that price. An I3 2100 is better in all regards and is cheaper.

    Third, that's a pretty weak GPU, are you building a new setup or upgrading from an old one?

    Thing is, weak to you is probably not being able to play 7 games at once:P I only expect to play WoW and SWtor at medium settings at best =)

    Basicly building anyway, if you got some ideas of a better setup though, please let me know xD

    Not at all! A variety of our posters are system builders in real life, where we deal with low budget average use buyers every day, as opposed to high end enthusiasts. I believe my post is still relevant, however. The i3 2100 is actually a significantly better processor for gaming, and you're going to need a bit more in the graphics department to make it worth while.

    The 6670 won't make a for a comfortable playing experience with SWTOR or WoW at medium in populated areas or raiding environments. Factoring in a bulldozer cpu, and you'll be extremely let down by your rig.

    Honestly a better setup would be something like this.

    Cpu: i3 2100 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Intel-Sandyb...5058872&sr=1-1
    Ram: 4gb http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-TW3X...5058720&sr=1-3
    GPU:http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sapphire-111...5058795&sr=1-2
    MoBo: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asus-P8H61-M...5058829&sr=1-3

    Total cost:£269.47

    Is that the budget for everything? HDD, PSU, OS? Because you'll not manage any better on a 400 budget if you need the rest.

    Need a new OS whenever you insert a new mobo/cpu. So that adds around 70 pound to the budget. You can upgrade to a 6870 with the remainder and perhaps a low end p67 board for upgrading at a later date.

    No, I've no idea who they are, or if it's some inhouse brand. Do not, I repeat do not, skimp on the essentials.

    HDD and PSU must come from reputable manufacturers or you're screwed. Corsair have quite cheap and very high quality ones.
