I'm looking to buy a new mobo/CPU/RAM and I just want to be sure that everything is compatible and will serve its intended purpose (online gaming). I am on a budget of around $200-$250 but I am willing to spend more if necessary (I would like to keep it closer to $200 unless the hardware in that price range is too low quality for what I need). My full system specs are included in a text file attachment.
I was considering this motherboard:

But it seems like all the processors that go with this board are a little too expensive for me. Is this motherboard too low quality for what I need? It seemed like a good choice considering my budget.
This is the CPU that I was looking at:

Here is the RAM I'm considering:

Would I be better off getting 2 x 1GB sticks? Or should I go with the single 2GB stick listed above? I'm just looking for some opinions on this combo. Remember I am using this system for online gaming so if these choices are gonna be insufficient for that then I wanna know. If anyone knows of a specific brand of RAM that goes better with this board that would be great also. My video card is fairly large, I'm not sure if that's a factor when choosing a motherboard.
