charlesh4,

Welcome to HTG.

Everything Will Work Together EXCEPT you need a larger capacity SSD for the system drive.

Suggest this one (128GB) as is known good hardware and it comes with mounting bracket.
Crucial M4 CT128M4SSD2BAA 2.5" 128GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) $115

Also when you post a Build, please post your maximum budget.
