I'm upgrading my custom-build PC. I'm fairly new at system building and i was just wondering before i spent all the money on the parts i want to make sure they are fully compatible with each other. Any help is greatly appriciated.

They are compatible, but they're pretty poor choices, and you're paying a bit too much there as well.

Why? You can run those parts with a high end graphics card off a 250W power supply.
