Waste of money on the PSU, get a fortron 450W. The 400W is more than enough, but the price difference is minimal.

Not sure about the Mobo, you don't need a SLI board so the A8N E would do just as well, the Epox or DFI boards are excellent overclocking boards and i think the A8N E is pretty good too.

Not bad for a budget system.

I will be using the SLI soon after the build with another vid card...I picked that psu because i read some articles about how it was good with the sli and didn't fail when sli was used like some other psu's

If you're sure you're going SLI then alright. The fortron 450W should be sufficent, but if you want a good high end PSU then the NeoHE range or the Enermax liberty range are both better (in my opinion) than the Truepower.

Where are those PSU's sold?? Can't find on new egg?? Also are they 24 pin main connectors? That is what my MOBO needs.

Get a Tagan 480W PSU, it has a 24 pin connection and many more. They've taken into account every little detail on the power supply to get clean power ( even a grounding cable that goes to the chassiss). I got mine for $85.

Another vote here for the Fortron 450W. Great great great PSU for the price.
