A budget would be a big help.

On a side note - I'm surprised that you only went for 3GB of RAM, but have a 295...

If I were buying right now, I'd get the Asus P6X58D - it's got a lot of features, and includes USB 3.0 and SATA 6Gb/s - nice to have a little leeway for the future with those options.
