Any suggestions for changes are welcome. Any help is welcome as I am learning still. Anything regarding motherboards is also good as I know little about them:)
 
I suggest you get a good brand power supply, instead of the one, included in the case. Look at antec, ocz, hiper, enermax, or FSP group power supplies. Specs look good though.
 
Thx what do suggest for wattage? I bought my self a cheap 430Watt cooler master PSU for a different computer and might use that as the other computer did not fit the PSU
 
A 450W-550W should be good. I would suggest the FSP Group 450W, HIPER 480W or 580W, and the Antec 550W.
