Comes out to roughly 173USD but we'll take it at 140USD to account for price discrepencies and such
The ASUS P4P800SE [$93.50] is solid, high value board that more than suits your requirements as well as the Rosewill RV450 [12V@33A, $39.99]

hmm, that looks like a mobo, and cheap at £50, but i cnat find that psu on uk sites, any other suggestions?

or, im thinking, should i screw my pentium cpu, and get amd, with mobo?

if your really into gaming, i would suggest going the AMD route.
