RAM -
6G Kit(3x2G) DDR3 1600 G.Skill-NQ - AUD 139

Power supply - Any of these PSUs...Dont go above 550W as it would be a total overkill for your config with a single card...
Antec EA 500
Seasonic PSR550+
Seasonic M12 II 500W

As for OS, go with 64-bit so as to utilize the full 6GB RAM and the 896MB of the video RAM...
And Yes these would fit that 902...

I am powering a similar system with a kind of old Antec 550 w TP3. I agree with gkay09. If you are not going to run 2 big video cards, anything over a good 550 is overkill.

That's a hell of a WOW system. You can easily play WOW on 1/3 of that system...
