Hi I have built a few computers before but not for a while so I am wondering about the parts I have chosen to buy, whether they are compatible mostly. If anyone could just give it a quick check, I would be really grateful.

1X Fractal Design R3 case

1X Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3P Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard

1X Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (KHX1600C9D3X2K2/8GX)

1XOCZ Agility 3 120GB 2.5" SATA-3 Solid State Hard Drive (AGT3-25SAT3-120G)

1X Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 32MB Cache - OEM (ST31000524AS)

2X Gainward GeForce GTX 580 "GOOD Edition" 1536MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card **Supplied with FREE Batman: Arkham City PC game** [4260183361749]

1X Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor - OEM [BX80623I52500K]

Also have a Power Supply that should get the job done.

I dont really have much room to move on the budget so not really looking for upgrades to it just whether they will all work together.

Thanks for looking :)
 
They are compatable, but instead of the Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3P, I would get other motherboard that's Gen 3 with PCI-E 3.0.

These two MSI boards are worth considering around the same price range:
MSI Z68A-G45-G3

MSI Z68A-GD55-G3
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-191-MS&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=1990

Both support Crossfire/SLI at x8/x8, and have onboard 8 Channel HD Audio with THX TruStudio Pro instead of the typical Realtek 7.1.
