hmm im not sure if 6 4-pin connectors are enough for me, but then again it is a very good psu, i saw it before on another website for the best bang for a buck listing. also, whats the difference between the fan being on the outside part of the psu and the top part of the psu?

hmm...
2 case fans..
1 harddrive,
1 dvd burner,
oO

The Asrock 939dual-sata2 would let you use your AGP card now, and let you upgrade to PCIe later. It isnt a neutered AGP slot either...full 8x/4x. Review here.

hmm...
well i would definetly pick the msi neo4 over this
after reading alot of reviews, it is a good board but only it asrock would spend time on making a good bios, so many errors and problems such as cold boot. it is also slower than the msi board. but it is a good value board.

the other mobos have 24pins b/c they need an extra 4 pins plugged into the mobo for added stability.
