Help with getting motherboard

Yeah loooks good. Although I'd recommend stepping up to a better videocard, 6600GT at the least.
 
First of all, you should have posted this in General Hardware, and secondly don't bump your thread after an hour. I've been told this on occasion, just speaking from experience and from what I have seen happen to other users.

Now, as for your question:YES, that motherboard will work. It has a PCI-E Slot for your videocard, and two PCI slots for videocard and soundcard. You will only have one PCI slot left though.
 
I agree, this should be in the general hardware section.

Either way, the components you listed should work just fine in that motherboard.
 
ok, What motherboard should i get instead? that has more pci slots? what would i use pci slots for anyways?
 
Yeah that mobo will work but from what I've heard (not personal experience) Gigabyte mobos are more about bling and extra features that speed and stability. I personally stick with Asus (AN8E) and pci slots are pretty much useless to me since I use the onboard stuff.
 
ok, well, I was wondering about motherboards with built in sound cards.. are there any?

Most all motherboards these days have onboard sound...fine if you're like me and use headphones but audiophiles will want an Audigy 2, Xfi or other add-on.
