Yeah by how much? If it's a big difference I will just order it later, I am trying to fit this all into one paycheck so I can always buy it later. (I don't mind reformat.)

Thanks again. :3 Quick question, will I need to buy any cords or cables? Or will they all come with the appropriate parts I buy.

Will the 400w be enough to run everything?

What do you guys think about stock HS? Should I be fine with that or go with something like this?

Yes, definitely, only really make sure you're not going to overclock, it's not a lot of fun to have to remove the mobo and install the heatsink again.

If you wanted to get a different processor and needed to cut costs, do not do it on the mobo, that is not the place. The 400w will still be fine. If you would like a L3 cache around that price go for the Phenom II x3. Its only triple core but will still give you about the same performance in games.

Short answer: no
Long answer: http://www.tomshardware.com/review [...] 416-9.html
It HELPS but is surely not NEEDED.
