Thats not bad but the cpu you have in your build is a AM2 not AM3 so you will either have to get different ram or a different CPU but not bad so far ..

There are a few things that i wouldnt get and use the money els where to get better hardware ie. CPU and GPU but thats just my 2 cents worth

1. The memory you chose will not work on that motherboard, as it's triple channel designed for the i7's. I believe they use a lot less voltage.

2. The processor you chose will not work with that motherboard either, as it's AM2+, and only supports DDR2 memory.

I'll post some suggestions in a sec.

Edit - Here are the processor(s) you're looking for.

X4 945 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103675

X4 955 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103674

And memory.
