Downgrade to a AMD 955, the only difference is the .4 GHZ speeds, which won't be noticeable.

The Mobo you listed is AM3, it will fit the AMD 955, but WON'T be able to upgrade to AMD's future Bulldozer chips. It would be dumb not to go with an AM3+ motherboard.

Very good motherboard with a good power phase and CF abilities.
Upgrade the video card to a 6870, it's like 10$ more and is a bit better.

Stick to XFX if you're buying a AMD video card due to XFX's lifetime warranties.
That Caviar Blue is pretty slow compared to a F3 or a WD Black, especially since you're using it as your bootdrive.
