Oh yea, I already have the hdd, dvd drive and wireless card. Oh BTW does the board have 20 pin and 4 pin ps connections? Cos I really can't afford a second power supply. |

The mobo you listed has a 1 x 24-pin EATX Power connector(s) but a 20 pin should work. Altho it may depend on how many watts the PSU is (and the brand that you've got). And what you install in the case later |

The PSU is 330 W, but it has 2 motherboard connections, a four pin and a twenty pin. Is there a converter that i could get? |

I would replace the PSU. Anything under 400 watts will probably die / fail sooner or later. Or something will fail (that you connect to the mobo). And if its a Hyena power supply, I would definitely replace it |

Ok so if u get the CPU, 4 gigs ddr3, mobo, and a new power supply, approx how much money are we talking here? |

That depends on where you are / live. Are you in NZ or somewhere else? If you're in NZ, there's a few prices here (pricespy.co.nz). The mobo isnt too bad, you may get the PSU for $80-90. You may have to find another CPU tho. Since, I dont think the 7550 will work on the mobo you posted. The ram (depending on where you get it / and the brand maybe $90 or more for 2x2 GB) |

Does an enermax tomahawk 400W power supply sound good? I'm in Wellington btw :) does anyone have any ideas for a CPU that's also under$150? |

Ok cool about enermax, I think ill get that one then. I don't need a quad core, so thats why I was looking at an athlon, but if there's a quad core for about the same price then that's good. |
