Hi all, i want to know whether all these components would be okay together

CPU= AMD FX−4100 quad core 3.60 GHz

RAM = 8.00GB (2x4gb)

Graphics = : EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB Superclocked ACX 2.0 Video Card

PSU = Storm 600w

mothgerboard = gigabyte technology, M68MT−s2

All comments welcome

Thanks

FX-4100 is not supported on that board.
Only up to Phenom II X4 and X6.
I would suggest a 955 or 965 BE.

I'm also concerned about that "storm" psu's quality... never heard of it, and that concerns me for your rig.

Yeah...it's junk....and discontinued almost 3 years ago.

a 955 or 965 would be great on that board, throw in some 1333 ram and it's a powerhouse the 4100 can never be.

I already have this 4100 with this motherboard, just not the graphics card yet... So i need to upgrade my PSU if i want this GPU, anything else?

The 4100 won't work in that board.

Matter of fact, neither will a 965 BE.
It's a 95w max board.

Kinda after the fact asking if it'll all work after you all ready bought it.

Yep.. looks like he needs a new board to support the cpu he bought...

Excuse me chaps chaps chaps, i've already said it, my current spec is

CPU= AMD FX-4100 quad core 3.60 GHz
RAM = 8.00GB
Graphics= 1024MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 6700 Series
Hardisks = x2 500gb HDD's
PSU = Storm 600w
mothgerboard = gigabyte technology, M68MT−s2

Ive had this for a long time and it has works perfectly, so im confused as to why so many of you are talking about my CPU.. I just wanted to know if all my current components could handle a new graphics card of high quality?

This is why...http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=3645

That CPU isn't on the CPU support list for that motherboard.

EDIT: But I imagine you have the rev 3.1 which it IS on the support list: http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=3967

EarthDog · Dec 1, 2015

It would work fine.
