Right.

Im doing a lot of research and red a lot on the net before I build my first comp, ive made a lot of topics asking questions etc, im finally closing in to the point where I will just start building the computer.

Here are some questions:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-236-AS
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-265-AM
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-180-GI

Pieces ill be getting.

Got a new 550W PSU and a big case aswell.

Case here (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-029-OP&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat=505)

First question: The case has only 1 fan in the front. Will I need to buy another fan to attach at the back or is it fine the way it is ? (CPU and GPU will be stock)

Second question: Since im replacing the motherboard, will I need to buy a new OS or borrow from someone ?

Third question: Is 550W Cooler Master PSU enough for the build ?

Fourth question: Can I reuse the DDR2 ram I got in my comp now on the new motherboard?

I think thats it for now

thanks
 
1st Q: just buy one or two of those yate loon fans just to be on the safe side (£4 each)
2nd Q: it depends if your OS is a retail version or the OEM version
3rd Q: if your talking about the GX seires yes it will be enough(but you couldve gone for something much better)
4th Q: yes you can reuse your DDR2 Ram
 
1) Not sure if theres a proper way to attach the fans to that case, and to avoid modding all Id do is get an aftermarket cooler and point it towards rear exhaust, this would do the trick
2) As above
3) As above
4) As above
