I'm planning on building a new gaming PC but not sure if all of my parts are compatible with each other. I just want to avoid any problems with this build because I can't afford to fix it if it fails. 

 

Intel i5-7400-kabylake processor

gigabyte radeon rx 470 4gb GPU

gigabyte GA-H110M-DS2 motherboard

EVGA 500W bronze power supply

WD Blue 1TB HDD

sandisk SSD Plus 120GB

 

Please help...

You do need RAM tho.

RAM is so over rated, you don't actually need it to for the PC to work, just use pixel dust instead much better, much better and faster :P

As long as you don't have say a 6th generation CPU to update your bios with the motherboard and cpu won't be compatible. 

99% sure that most Gigabyte boards don't need a bios update for Kaby.
