Compatibility Issues

[DannyBoy25]

Hi guys,

Very first post and also very first attempt at building a new pc so please forgive any ignorant questions on my behalf.

Basically I am worried about three major things in my set up, the PSU, MOTHERBOARD and CASE. I will list these items that I have chosen now:

PSU = Corsair TX 850W ATX2.2 SLI Compliant Power Supply

MOTHERBOARD = Asus P6T Deluxe Intel X58 (Socket 1366) PCI-Express DDR3 Motherboard

CASE = Coolermaster HAF 932 Case - Black (No PSU)

I have just a few questions about these products so please bear with me and once again apologies for stupid newbie questions.

1) Is the power supply I have chosen going to have all or enough of the relevant cables for this set up and is the wattage enough for a ATI 4870 X2 GFX card?

2) The case has 3 standard 230mm fans. Does this motherboard provide enough connections in to connect all 3 and maybe more?

3)I'm slightly concerned about cooling, so has the case I selected going to provide sufficient cooling for the Hard Drive and GFX Card? (I will not be overclocking).

Thanks for your time guys, I appreciate all the feedback you will give as I am itching to order this set up very soon.
