Thread: First linux system; what do you think? Compatabilty & more.


as title states, decided build first system , move ubuntu windows. anyway, here specs:
intel core i5 3570k
asrock *z77* extreme4
kingston 8gb hyperx genesis 1600mhz cl9 (kit of 20)
western digital 2tb caviar black sata iii
intel 120gb ssd 330 series 2.5ยจ sata iii bundled desktop kit
(corsair professional hx650w
cooler master haf 912 plus)

would system ubuntu/ linux -compatible?

best of knowledge be, i'd confirm that. info, on compatibility of motherboard linux has been scarce.

do need graphics card?
is there 1 suggest?

missing anything? have suggestions make better?

thanks in advance? i'm not sure how close this...

can post exact model number of motherboard? when google "asrock extreme4" more 1 model (different chipsets, 1 p67, 1 z68 - latter 1 still in stock @ newegg, former isn't).

motherboard chipset important thing in determining compatibility.
