I am fairly new to computer building but I want to get my feet wet and try to build a new computer and If I enjoy it enough, might do it in the future.

Anyways, considering I believe I have a fairly decent graphics card (nvidia GTS 250) and a fairly decent PSU (500W, not sure of make or brand, but dont feel like looking right now) I thought about building my own PC.

I thought about buying a new one all together but even if I have to replace the PSU I won't mind but my new set-up I was considering was this.

MOBO: ASUS M4A89GTD
CPU: AMD PENOM II x4 965
GRAPHICS: Nvidia GTS250

I guess my question being is will the mobo and cpu be okay with the video card? or will there be bottlenecking involved/hanging, etc?

anyone? simple yes or no will suffice. just making sure i am capable of doing such a thing with the motherboard.

Good brand Mobo choice.
Your 500W PSU, regardless of brand, will not be sufficient for a GTS 250 GPU.
ATI & Nvidia chipped GPU's are both good chipsets.
