gotta make compromise somewhere though, if you want premium then u r gonna pay a bit more :(

would have to agree with wankerfx if ur on a budget. Id rather have an X38 chipset over the P35 for the PCIe 2.0 and 16x PCI express lanes...but on the cheap the bloodiron would be a great choice.

tbh, the best power supplies u will buy are corsair and enermax...others may be close, but they r the best. 32C is fine. Why dont u try leaving it on the bios screen and see if it crashes? It could just be a bad OS install or something (im not familiar with linux).

center is important too. Dont want the motherboard to short on the backplane after installing new cards :)
