Is this MoBo included in the above total?(too lazy to add :3) Also what sort of games would this support, I dont plan on playing crysis or anything but a general overview would be appreciated. I should have said what I intended to use it for though gaming seems implied on this forum. Thanks again!

NVM I added it all up, it is actually cheaper than you said.

If it's cheaper, then it wasn't the board I've configured.
It's this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131711

Comparing the two, this one has 4 ram slots.
For the cheaper one it's got right angle SATA ports so it does not interfere
with long dual slot video cards, but if you go with the cheap board, you may
want to get yourself a single piece 4GB stick so you can have room for future ram upgrades.

Well its not significantly more expensive (10$ more) so ill go with the extra upgrade support. Whats the comparison on a single stick of ram versus two sticks, if there is any? (obviously both having the same overall amount)

Even when both are the same amount, have a pair of ram gives you dual channel, but the cheaper board is limited thus why you should just get a single piece. This only gives you single channel, but when you upgrade later on, the amount of ram will increase and becomes dual channel.

The more expensive board with 4 slots have plenty of upgrade room so you can get them 4GB pair first and upgrade when you need to.
