Looks good, but I would steer away fromBiostar motherboards because of the crap warranty system and because generally the build quality isn't as good as Asus, Gigabyte or MSI.

Also, you could save some by going with Ripjaws rather than PI. You won't see any noticable performance difference at all between the two.

finally, no storage drive? Is 80GB storage really going to be enough for what you need, bareing in mind after an install of Windows you will have 60GB to play with, and that is without any other software installed
 
My bad, I already have a WD Caviar Green 500GB HDD.

Care to recommend another board that supports the CPU, RAM and all that?
 
Win7 professional is a waste of money unless you're going to use all its features, For a gamer (Gaming system I presume?) Win7 Home Premium should be fine :)
