Hello everyone, mainly what my problem is, this is my first time building a computer. I've never done it before in any way, shape or form, so i dont really know alot about the insides of a computer. I am a gamer, so obviously i like to play games :) so the computer im trying to build is a gameing one but the problem is, with the limited knowledge i have about building a computer, i dont know if any one the following items i have bought, are compatible. One thing tho, is the graphics card im getting is a must, i dont want to change that.

So the graphics card i am getting is, the Nvidia geforce GTX 560 Ti.

and the processor im planning on getting providing they work together is the Phenom II x4 3.4 GHz processor.

and another one im not sure about is the Asus sabertooth X58 Motherboard.

and a 750w power supply.

So my problem is, i want to know if all of theese i have listed, will work together? because i dont know alot about the inside of a computer, im not actually sure what i should be looking for. So really the main question is.

Will all of theese work together and if they do, ill get straight to ordering them, and if not. What would you guys recommend as a replacement within the same sort of price range. That will work together.

Thank you for reading this everyone and have a great day.

Also sorry if this is in the wrong forum, i was not sure which forum would be best for this, so i just went with my gut instinct and went here. :)

The processor is not compatible with the motherboard (It's an Intel motherboard). Not to mention, the motherboard is only compatible with the last generation of Core-i7 processors.

What is your budget for this and do you currently have any of the parts you mentioned or are you just planning right now?

My budget is £500, as for some of the parts i own, i already own a Dvd-rw, aswell as a mouse and keyboard, i have a PSU but its only 300W, so i dont think thats good enough, and i alrdy have windows 7, so we dont reallyneed to include any windows :)
