I am buying a new mobo and a GPU . But I was thinking to get a last word on thier compatibility.
So ,
Mobo: ASUS m5a88-m
GPU: MSI ATI Radeon HD 6670 1GB Gddr5(Dual Fans)


Is this GPU going to fit properly on my motherboard?



I know its a dumb qus. but please bear with me.:p

I am considering:
Corsair -430CX 430W
Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus 500W ATX Power Supply - TheITWares
Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus 500W ATX
Corsair CMPSU-430CX 430W Power Supply


What do you think of these two?

And which one I should go for as both of them are in same price range(Approx. 2800) ?

Get corsair cx 430 v2, their build quality is a tad better than cooler master extreme series.

Go for the corsair unit eyes closed. And don't worry about the card. It will easily fit.

CX430V2 is the one to go for. Cooler Master extreme series is crap and not reliable. Don't even think to go for it.
