Awesome thanks very much for clarifying that. I went ahead and added that first suggestion you had for the power supply (cheapest) onto the wish list and as far as the pci express graphics card since I dont have one for the new motherboard I thought this looked reasonable:

EVGA 512-P3-N861-AR GeForce 9600 GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

Not too sure if Newegg has the best deals and selection as far as graphic cards go unless you guys know of a better decently priced and more powerful/better quality one. As far as that goes it should complete my upgrade list and comes around $530 and I guess I'll slowly buy these parts one by one as I can afford them - first part at the end of next month hopefully.

Also, would I need to buy a fan for the processor or is there one included in the packaging? I'm guessing thats a seperate purchase and if so what would best (cheapest) fit onto a AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Windsor 3.0GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 125W Dual-Core Processor?

guys have been a big help I'm starting to taste actually having a decent computer of todays gaming standards lol
