I am building a pc for college. I chose to build a desktop becuase it is much cheaper than a comparable laptop or paying a company to build the same pc for more. I would like to use windows vista 64 bit. I dont know much about hardware compatabilty. I am buying the parts on newegg and having a local pc store put together the system together and install the os for 90 dollars. Dont critize me for being a noob to this as I have never built a pc.

My questions will be this for all the following hardware; are these parts 64 bit compatable and will they all work together?
