Compatability question

In my old computer I have these 3 pieces of RAM (1 512mb, 2 256mb) and i'm just wondering if they will be compatible with the motherboard I am planning to buy from overclockers

Will work with this motherboard.

Edit: woops, did it in a hurry this morning. Is the manufacturers website acceptable for a link?

If the RAM isn't compatible, would it be possible to get some advice on what I can get for £70 maximum which will work?

Updated, sorry for the mistake

1gb of RAM is all I would need at the moment, plus the motherboard specs say I have space to get more RAM if I need it

Great thanks a lot.

So the finished machine will be:

Asrock ConroeXFire-eSATA2 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard (MB-003-AK)

Intel Core 2 DUO E6400 "LGA775 Allendale" 2.13GHz (1066FSB) - Retail (CP-127-IN)

Corsair 1GB DDR2 Value Select PC5300 Dual Channel Kit (2x512MB) (VS1GBKIT667D2) (MY-083-CS)

BFG 3DFuzion GeForce 7600 GT 256MB GDDR3 TV-Out/DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-025-BG)

Antec NSK4400 Mini Tower Case - 380W SmartPower PSU (CA-052-AN)

This all works together correct? Just to make sure.

Thanks for the information, just a quick final question.

A couple of my mates say I should beef up the power supply to around 450W or 500W for the graphics card.

Should I go for this or is that current PSU good enough?
