If motherboard supports CPU socket then it's compatible.

The mainboard (motherboard) fully supports the CPU (official sources). I can't really say something about the RAM because you didn't listed a specific model, but personally I never got problems with incompatible RAM.
PSU is fine enough for that system. Just a hint, get a SSD. Thank me later.^^

That's totally true, the memory is fine too, I've got the same but in 2*4. For the GPU if you can take the custom model of Asus ( The DCUII) unless you want to watercool it then take the basic model. :)

Guys witch one is better (I don't do OC) ? Asus GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5 OR Gigabyte GV-N780OC-3GD R 2.0 .
Also is the PSU strong enough and silent too ?

That depends which you like more.

To be honest I would always go with Gigabyte since they changed their board color from ugly blue to black.
Looks awesome but thats not the only reason,
Asus is known to build quiet cards because of their fan setup but the Gigabyte has 3 fans which allowes you to reduce the fan speed but still got good temperatures.
I guess the Asus has a bit less clock speed than the Gigabyte too but im not sure.
You dont do anything wrong if u take one of these since both are pretty reliable.
Check some forums and look what other customer say about these cards and what advantages you get.

EDIT: That PSU is actually oversized for your setup you wont get over 600 watts I guess. But the price is damn low I bought my be quiet! Dark Power Pro 10 850W for 230€ (314$) ...
