I probably wouldn't choose that motherboard, it has quite an old chipset, something based on the Intel P35 chipset would probably be better unless you really need SLi. Most people don't need SLi anyway, what size is your monitor?

Are those the only parts you need? The PSU is slightly overkill at present as a good 500w would easily cope. The graphics card choice will partly depend on your monitor, if 20" or over then you might be better with the 640mb 8800GTS or the 8800GTX.
