    well by the looks of it the components you have specified will fit and run in your motherboard. just need to sort the rest out and it should run fine :P i currently have that graphics card and i would personally recommend you get a slightly larger case and a big power supply of around 500W.

    For Power Supply, check out the 12V rail amp ratings, that's more important. A 400W PSU with good 12V rail would do fine if you're not using 2 hard drives, 2 optical drives and a ubergaming graphics card which you really don't need anyway unless you're wanting to max out Crysis on your HDTV.

    How do i check it??
    Right now i own a psu for a pentium 4 450w i don't think that enough because i'm going to use the motherboard & the Cpu that i already listed, for the start i'm going to installed 2gb ddr 800mghz ram(upgrade it month by month), & could be 1TB HDD Sata(upgrade it month by month), and i change my mind about the display, i will buy the asus 9800gtx+, and just a single dvd burner..i think i will try to get the ocz psu 650w atleast, or should i go higher?

      One thing to mention.  Do NOT buy your computer parts until you have the money to buy them all at once. If your build is scheduled more than a couple months away, I can almost guarantee significant cost savings. Or maybe a much better component will come down to your price range.

        Kingwin power supply!

         I've done my PSU research. Kingwin is the most affordable out of the "top brands"

        I own 4 kingwins now and very happy with all of them.

        Whenever there's a doubt trust the manuf. info over a review site...
