Will this mobo fit for my setup?

the chipset in that motherboard is old, and i believe will not support that CPU. Even if it does, if you are going to spend the money on those other components, getting that motherboard would be a waste.

If you go to this webpage you will see that it supports 45nm and everything else needed, or am I wrong?

And what do you think of the PSU?
 
RedDevil6 - You've GOTTA be joking me! Honestly! How is the P35 chipset out of date!?

Also, wish a CMOS flash, it'd support ANY 45nm Quad...

i agree with reddevl. its not out of date really, but why get a p35 when there are newer chipsets now? especially since he is putting a lot of money into other brand new, high end components.
 
before you decide to go with the Q9300 i would read some reviews on it, and make sure you dont want to get the Q6600 instead. just throwing that out there. To me the q9300 seems like a waste of money. especially seeing that the 6600 is way more overclockable and has a much larger cache, not to mention the 9300 only has 100mhz more clock speed. the only plus to the q9300 is that is more energy efficient.

but thats only what i have read about it
 
Hmmm.

That doesn't help me decide :P But I've figured out that I might go with the X38 instead, but now I'm uncertain about the CPU. LOL
 
just read alot. before i had the mobo and cpu in my sig i had something else, didnt read much about it and was very dissapointed, read alot, and made my decision about what i have now and couldnt be happier.

I've also read a lot so far, but I just don't want to make any wrong choices.

That might be the only good thing about not having enough money - the time you save them up, gives you time to find the right parts :)

Q9300 is slightly better than Q6600.

Some ppl mention Q6600 is having sales in US ($200)...
If $200 vs $300, definately Q6600...
