EDIT: GET THAT 32BIT WINDOWS THE HELL AWAY! 64 BIT only :D Otherwise you'll only be rebuying soon anyway.

biostar is ok, depends on the model and 750w can be good enough depending on model. (something like an XFX 750W psu would be perfectly fine)

Biostar is fine if you're not overclocking.

yeah i would of had the 64bit but i bought the wrong one on tigerdirect, but i might get 64 bit just depends on funds. i am not too sure what psu yet i am still price checking. also would this be better ASUS P8P67 Pro Intel P67 Motherboard, and what kind of a psu would be best to do a 4ghz OC and sli (links much appreciated)?

ps. this is my first build, so i am still learning the ropes. plus i have already spent $200 on my case and memory, and realy don't want to push another $1000-1100.

Try returning the 32 bit if you can, and asus mobo's are indeed nicer. For the PSU i can't really say as i'm not in the US, but if you make sure whatever PSU you get has at least 70A total across all 12V rails you'll be good to go.

I have a Biostar and its actually overclocking better than any Asus motherboard I've had in the past. ^-^

Biostar TA890FXE to be exact. It has very good overclocking capabilities. :)

The 32-bit OS is not going to be able to utilize all 4GB of RAM, I suggest you upgrade to a 64-bit. If you send me a PM I can assist you with getting the 64-bit version for free.

If you activated the OS already then you can't return it, since the activation is tied to the motherboard for anti-copy reasons, to help ensure that only one copy of Windows is used per PC.
