Items for a low cost setup, and a few questions

[Elrad]

Hey,

Im makeing a new cheep setup due to mine slowly dieing on me.

My past 2 setups have been shuttles so im a bit rusty at this, These are the components i have chosen:

Asus M4A78LT-M LE AMD 760G Socket AM3
AMD Athlon II X3 450 3.2GHz Socket AM3
Corsair 430W CX PSU
Scythe Shuriken Quiet Low Profile
OCZ 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1333MHz/PC3-10666
Samsung HD103SJ Spinpoint F3 1TB

£240


I have a few questions, will all this work together?

If anyone knows if the Scythe Shuriken will hit the ram? with the ram being close to the cpu and the fact the HS is low profile.

Due to space im going to make my own case to house all these conponents, As far as i know the motherboard always mounts on the right side of the case.
would it be ok to turn the motherboard round and mount it on the left and have the cpu and the slots the wrong way up?

Thanks for any help, Sean
