Hi, Im new to the forums. I recently bought my first custom built pc. when i purchased it I noticed a lot of people have used this setup before, I thought id ask people who already have the same setup rather than going nuts and making a brick out of my setup here is my set up.

Intel Core i3 540 3.06GHz (Clarkdale) (Socket LGA1156) - Retail
Gigabyte GA-H55M-UD2H Intel H55 (Socket 1156) DDR3 microATX Motherboard
Corsair Builder Series CX 500W ATX Power Supply (CMPSU-500CXUK)
Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (CMX4GX3M2A1600C9)
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2 CPU Cooler (Socket 939 / AM2 / AM3 / 775 / 1155/ 1156 / 1366)
Arctic Cooling MX-4 Thermal Compound (4g)

if not I thank you for at least trying

I seen the sticky Im just scared of breaking my system I just thought there might have been a copy and paste type technique if that made sense

Don't worry about breaking anything, just read through guides, take your time, stick under max safe voltages, keep an eye on load temps.
