I'm building this system for a friend and i haven't built an AMD system recently, so I was just wondering about the compatibility of these parts. The PSU and motherboard in general. i realize a video card and monitor are missing from the list of parts. Thank you for anything you can tell me.

bump - anyone know if the sparkle psu and the motherboard will play nice?
 
I see no probs. I'm not up to spec on current technology, though. I had a sparkle PSU, but it went tits-up in a brown-out a year and a half later (It was a 300W). PRetty much same specs, but I had:

No LG CD-RW
A Lite-on 48x24x48x CD-RW
A Lite-On 52x CD-ROM
Asus P4B Motherboard
and 256MB Azen PC133

I'd say go for it, but I dunno if I'd trust it in an area where the power is all screwy.
 
I would not get that PSU for a couple of reasons. 18A@12v is a little low going forward, it is not an ATX12v2.0 PSU so future use and upgrading can/will be limited.

Instead look at the Antec TruePower II series, the Seasonic S12 series, the Fortron Bluestorms, or the Enermax ATX12v2.0 lines.
 
I'd say look into the PC Power & Cooling PSU's. One of, if not the best PSU's you can purchase.
