So I recently had my main computer crash and break to the point I need a new computer so I figured I'd make it worth it this time.

I found a cheap deal on tiger direct for http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicat...CODE=GOOGLEBASE&cm_mmc_o=VRqCjC7BBTkwCjCECjCE

Everything on there seems decent but I am curious about the board itself. Would that board be good for gaming, which I wish to use my computer mainly for. I have at most a 700 dollar budget and this seems like a nice deal for it. I plan on putting a Geforce GTX 580 graphics card in it as soon as I get the money as a little side note if it matters.
 
That's a decent board, and it'll be fine for gaming. It's got 10/100/1000 ethernet for online multiplayer, and supports 7.1 surround sound. Keep in mind that is is a Micro-ATX board, and only has one PCI-E slot, so that means only one graphics card.

I'd make sure to buy a couple case fans to regulate airflow as well. That case has two 120mm fan ports, and your motherboard should be able to control both.
