Looks like it will work just fine. If you're in the US, you can probably bring down the price with Newegg combo deals.

That much you could land a Deneb rather than a Propus based rig with 80+ PSU included ^^

$480AR

^ Nice build, but get a better quality PSU...
This seems to be a good one for the price and also is an 80+

The Phenom II has an L3 cache; the Athlon II does not. L3 will help some applications run faster.
