Custom PC compatibility? I recently chose all hardware and my new tower. I triple checked the compatibility of all materials but I'm still not sure. Can someone please review the following items for me and tell me (if no problems) may occur with the material and energy needs and also what items / components that I miss (except optical drives).

Yes, everything is going well and you're not missing anything, if I am a little doubtful about the power supply included with the case. Usually, also included the supply of electricity does not work too well. I could not say if the case comes with fans pre-installed, but if so, you're good to go.
Good luck!
Looks good for the game, make sure you have enough cooling fans for CPU, MB, etc. Beauty, Happy games
Save your money, do not drive, the MB is configured with USB, go with flash drives instead, floppy drives are obsolete now.
Should be good. You could actually go a little further up the RAM speed, you have 667 stars elite, the motherboard supports up to 800. The low speed is always good work.
Which player is it? This is not 5.25, is it? Impossible to say.
Anyway, here is what I have not seen, you'll need or might want, if you do not already have this kind of thing:
CPU - did not see that it came with the motherboard.
CD / DVD-ROM: I would say at least one player CD-read/write, and a DVD player.
Power supply - usually included PSU is not that great. If you plan to add things ... go with at least 400 Watts ... yours is 300. This may ultimately prove unstable for your system.
Firewire (1394) and USB headers. I do not see that included on the motherboard. Your turn is equipped with front port connectors, but your motherboard may or may not connect to headers. You can get a PCI add to that internal headers to connect the top. Although the motherboard should at least have 2 internal headers on board. Otherwise, these connections will be dead on the front panel.
Check your motherboard. It supports PCI-E x16, but only works in x1 mode. Needless to say that this will be your bandwidth graphics accelerator. It may not even be compatible with the video card you selected.
