Motherboard compatible with processor?

Well my dad does know a few people. I guess i'll see if there is enough of a difference to get it shipped to someone there and then re-shipped here, otherwise i can just get it from here. CanadaComputers is looking good so far, the difference between the motherboard scout suggested to me was only 4 or 5 bucks, where as in tigerdirect it was atleast like 30 bucks. I'll post up my list of what i have tomorrow or day after, and also what i have for Newegg and we'll see from there.
 
Alright well i have the lists. I put them as an attachment. Tell me what you think. For the Canadacomputers list, i taxed it, since i can purchase the parts locally and won't need them shipped. For the Newegg list i didn't know about taxes or shipping but any estimates would be good.

I agree with hack, if you are gaming a newer GPU will be a wiser choice. Whatever you do don't get a Diewill (sorry Rosewill) PSU>
 
Alright, thanks for the advice. Anyone else have any feedback? Also does anyone know what the deal is with Newegg Canada?
 
You will most probably need a new power supply as well. For one thing, your old board probably has a 20-pin main connector whereas your new board has 24-pin plus the 4-pin. I don't know what PSU you currently have, but those new parts you picked out will certainly need more power than your old rig. Personally, I like this Corsair.

I know it's rather expensive, but it really doesn't pay to get nice parts and settle for a cheap power supply. My 2 cents worth anyway. Good luck!
