Help with compatibility issues.

Hi guys i am planning on upgradding a couple of bits in my PC and i have made a list of what i want to get so far and i was wondering if they would all work and have space to fit ect.

So here is what i should be getting:

case: fractal design define r3

CPU: AMD FX-6100

Mobo: Asus M5A99X EVO

Cooler: corsair h80

I also have 4 sticks of kingston hyperx limited edition ram which i think is about 3.8cm high, just noting this as if the H80 does not fit in the define r3 i will look to see if the nh-d14 will fit. And if you do know would the nh-d14 fit ?

Also i would like to know your views on the mobo i have listed and would it be worth paying a extra £30 for the Asus Sabertooth 990FX AM3+ ?

Thanks

Think it would be worth getting the sabertooth or UD5 from Gigabyte. The H80 should fit nicely i think. You can have the rad in the back or in the roof. The NH-D14 also fits in the R3 case, but make sure that the ram modules doesnt toutch the cooler/fan.

Cheers for the quick reply and i will mostly get the sabertooth then as i like asus and as i understand its a good board for overclocking ect. And thanks i didnt know if the rad on the H80 would fit in the back so thanks for that.
