Could someone with more PC building experience than me tell me whether these PC components can cooperate fully as a self-made PC?

Processor: Intel Core i5-3570K
Video card: Asus Radeon HD 7870
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H
RAM: Corsair CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10 Vengeance 16GB 1600MHz CL10 DDR3 (x2)
Storage: Western Digital WD1002FAEX (x2)
Display: Samsung S24B300HL
Sound: Logitech X140
Chassis: Thermaltake V4 Black Edition VM30001W2Z
Power supply: Seagate OEM 500W Builder PSU
Optical drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST

Thanks in advance! (btw, I know 32 GB RAM is unnecessary, but I want to buy it to use as a reserve)

I never got an answer in my googling to this about a year ago and have an extra stick of memory I'd like to be able to use. When is inserted the computer starts, and then reboots immediately in an endless reboot cycle. As soon as the 4th stick is removed, the computer works fine. Right now I have… >>> More
