These are all the things I want and the total came up to 1500 on amazon. I don't mind that.. But i wanna know if they are compatible with each other. I don't want to buy it yet, because i want to make sure first then order them.

for 1500 dollars I would try and get an i5-4670k/z97 mobo, may I ask why you have a 32GB RAM kit and a 6TB HDD? I would look into a 240~gb SSD and a 1-2 tb HDD. If you need large amounts of RAM a 16GB kit should be more than enough. The PSU you have chosen is of unknown quality and I would not risk it on a build that expensive, look here for that : http/www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html

Can you give me the model number of the mobo you are looking at there might be a problem with the processor you picked out, and instead of getting 32gb of ram (no program to date uses that much) get 16gb and upgrade your psu its a little wimpy

I want to turn it into a advance gaming computer. I pick 6TB for all the games I have, should be enough though, and I want the computer to run smooth an well, I don't want any kind of lagging, I also gonna hook up multiple monitors.

Take a look at this, it should max out most games for years to come. If you need to, you can change the ssd to a 256GB one or add a 750 watt power supply from the list I posted earlier if you plan to sli the 970 later
