Hi polakcasimir,

Definitely looks compatible to me. Have fun gaming!!!

Compatible, and a nice build all around, you could get a dvd burner at about the same price but that's only if you plan to burn discs.There is no better cpu in the price range, it's the best choice for a pure gaming machine.

All is compatible. I would also suggest going with a DVDRW and you can save a few dollars also. I do a LOT of movie burning and I have had excellent service from both of the below.
