ok, so im getting a new case and a new motherboard, and keeping all the other components. this is the motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-P67X-UD3-B3 LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel. will these parts all work in this motherboard? EVGA GTX 570 HD, intel i7 920, a cooling system on my graphics card, 6 gb of ddr3 ram in 3 sticks,1 harddrive a dvd drive an audio card, and a wireless card. please tell me it would help alot, thanks!

GPU: Sure
CPU: NO!!!! That is an older LGA1366 CPU (now retired performance socket), and the motherboard you chose is a LGA1155 one (mainstream current socket).
RAM: Sorta - you want ram in pairs for the board you chose. You could get one more 2GB stick, same specs as the others, and use that, or drop one 2GB stick, using 2 instead. You might not be able to boot with 3 pairs though (and if it does work, you'll be giving up dual-channel, sacrificing some speed).
HD, Audio, Wireless: Sure

Why are you replacing the motherboard?

i need a bigger case and a new mother board so i would have the space for a graphics card cooler. would the thermalright shamon on a gtx 570 fit in as well with the sound card and wireless card on this motherboard? ASUS Sabertooth X58 LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Hi. The motherboard will support that card. No problem. As for the graphics acrd cooler, as long as you get a good case with good air flow, you shouldn't need one. I have a Cooler Master 912 HAF mid tower and running a GTX 560Ti and have had no temperature problems. Course I have a bunch of fans in there too. Have a 200mm Intake and three 120mm fans for exhaust. Plenty of air getting through there.

my temps reach 80c gameplay, this whole thing is pretty much for me to get a cooler and be able to upgrade in the future because im getting a bigger case, and im used to low temps because i used to have amd

The GPU temp? Try reapplying the thermal paste. Does the fan work? If anything, amd processors tend to run hotter than intel ones it seems (TDP wise) nowadays.

its an nvidia, its brand new and everythings working fine, apparantly from my research those are the temps you get with the gtx 570

Try switching the thermal material to Arctic Silver 5, OCZ Freeze, or IC Diamond. Then grab up MSI Afterburner, and create a custom fan profile, increasing fan speed as the card warms up. Nvidia cards don't just get hotter, the profiles ALLOW them to get hotter. Meaning Nvidia chose the path of lower noise rather than lower heat. You can customize a profile to prefer lower heat over noise.

Hi. Pretty much normal for that card : http://benchmarkrevi...1&limitstart=15 . You can do as suggesed and reapply thermal compond after cleaning off the old stuff.
That card does tend to run a bit warm, but not dangerously so.
