Get an Antec Sonata case, make sure the 3200+ is a Venice core, and get an cheaper motherboard with an nforsce4 chipset.... and get an NEC 3520a DVD burner instead of that cd burner.
 
Get the EPoX NF4 Ultra mobo. Don't get XFX. Get Leadtek, eVGA, BFG or something like that, just no XFX. Get a NEC 3520a DVD burner. Get an Antec Sonata case w/ 380w PSU.
 
A8N-e is a MUCH better choice than A8V-E. The VIA is a good chipset, but the A8V-E is a perfect example about how NOT to make a motherboard (numerous stabilitty issues....etc).
If you're interested in getting a MUCH Better deal:
