The PSU is fine, but that motherboard...actually doesn't even support your CPU

I'd truly consider something better.

I don't like to buy cheap motherboards, everything is connected to the mobo so I think it's an extremly important part.
Personally I would not buy anything worse than this:

And if you plan to OC this one should be a good choice

I don't like Asus motherboard, but in that shop the choice is quite small...

I simply had a bad experience with an Asus motherboard and I don't want to risk it anymore, that's all. That's why I said "i don't like" instead of "Asus sucks", I know that many people use them without problems, and if I can I simply suggest a different brand.

Again, I'm not saying "Asus sucks" i just avoid suggesting it if I can, that's all, and I can't see any problem saying that I don't like it.

One time I bought an asus motherboard... it didn't work at all, bought a gigabyte one and it works fine. I'm just saying that I don't want to use them anymore... not that you shouldn't use them.
Specs: Intel Pentium P5 @ 60 Mhz, 1 Gigabyte HDD, OS: DOS
