I think you're throwing your money away with the 700w PSU, you'd be perfectly fine with a 500w, especially since the core 2 duos use less power. Dunno how I feel about the ECS mobo either. Personally, I'd stick with MSI, Gigabyte, or ASUS, but thats just me.
would 500w be enough to run dual cards eventually? thats the main reason i was goin' with the 700w
