Get a 2100 instead, WOW like dualies and intels, even with cataclysm which is supposed to support 4 cores.

Also the PSU is overspecced, even a 500W is overkill.
IMO, a 912 is perfectly fine also for the case.

2100T $125

Perhaps cheaper RAM also, but I don't know how much you're paying for that set.
