The worst thing on that list is the PSU. See if you can return it. I wouldn't trust that with a new build like yours.

The bare minimum I recommend for any kind of build is this PSU:
XCLIO Goodpower 500W PSU - $50

Oh and you can get that mobo for cheaper here:
GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L Intel P35 Motherboard - $95

- What video card will you be using with this new build?
- What are you planning to do with this new build?
- Are you planning to OC?
- What size monitor do you have?

Also, there are much better cases IMO than that Ultra Aluminus. I'd recommend something like this:
COOLER MASTER RC-690-KKN1-GP ATX Case- $80

But if you like that Ultra case, then keep it since you already bought it.

What video card will you be using with this new build? nothing now
- What are you planning to do with this new build? general use maybe some photoshop stuff
- Are you planning to OC? dont know how so no
- What size monitor do you have? 17

also the ultra comes with a 500 watt psu but i was just gonna sell it but if u think the ultra brand one
is more reliable i will use that one and take the thermaltake back, and also the board is only $94.99 at fry's and i have employee discount
so i will be paying about $92 for it, and for the case it is on sale for $99.00 with the psu thats y im buying it

It's a slight step-up above the Thermaltake PSU. It should be all right, I guess.

Here read this article yourself and decide whether or not that V series 500W is good:

Yea it looks alright but the thermaltake has the sleeve coverings already and also i got it for like 33 dollars with employee discount!

sorry, bargain shopper eh!!?

Anyways, keep the Ultra PSU in that case and take the thermaltake back, it only has 18A on the +12 rail, which means no high-end graphics cards for you.
