So what is it you want people to do with this information? What kind of help are you looking for?

 

[buzznut]

Yes, its difficult to see what you're after here. You have an overclocking CPU that you want to stick in a $45 motherboard. You have a nice graphics card, so it looks like gaming is a goal, but you've paired it with a low end power supply.

Your memory is twice the price of the CPU, in other words way overpriced. But how are you getting that CPU so cheap? This post just begs more questions...

How can a kingston ram be so overpriced.

 

[buzznut]

ah I see it now, the text is a little off. The price is actually two lines below the part. Malkes sense now.

BTW, you are wasting your time and money unless you buy AM3+. AM3 is a dead end.

If it's only for casual gaming then it's good but most would recommend you to get an AM3+ motherboard for ugrade options in the future.

The only change I would make is the MB. You're getting a erally low end MB. I suggest that for 20 more you can get a much more capable MB. Here it is:

That's a good mobo. Also, you might want to stick just 1 4gb stick then another 4gb later. The mobo you are planning to buy can only handle 2 ram sticks so you'll be spending money in the long run if 4gb will get replaced by 8gb as standard for games.
