Sure, but maybe save up a tad more and get a better motherboard?

Poor blender. No blender should ever have to suffer having an Apple product put inside it.

It will work but I'd suggest switching the 270x for the 270, and getting a better motherboard. Not that the current board is bad, but I think it's better to get a more full-featured board.

It's a joke--a reference to a show called 'Will it Blend' where random suggested objects are stuffed into a powerful blender.
