I don't care what the mobo is, since I know absolutely nothing about hardware.

Don't want to pay too much, I'm pretty broke. :(

EDIT : His prices are in american, so, I can't afford it.

the problem is, you don't have a video card in your list.

when are you expected to get those parts? i think you better wait till tomorrow because i believe most hardware gurus here are probably sleeping.

Well, I'd throw on some junker 25$ video card, I'm not a gamer.

I probably won't be buying a system for a few weeks or even a few months (when I move), I'm just trying to do my research. ^_^

good, i'd suggest you to wait till the price drops then you'd save more money. that's what i am doing now. i'm not gonna build an athlon64 desktop until next summer. :)

No problem with waiting, but still excited to build my own computer, first time. :)
Don't want to mess up, can't afford it, and it would be a major downer.

As long a my parts are compatible, I'm happy. I'll keep looking and looking until the day I decide to buy. ^_^

Alright, I think these are the parts you should stay with if you're at a set budget. Does that motherboard have integrated graphics? You can save a couple of bucks if you get integrated, so you don't have to pick up a video card.

I guess I could look for one with integrated graphics. However, I wouldn't mind a video card with TV Out. How much does a decent one cost to get a decent picture on a plain tv (not flatscreen or anything)?
