No, it's Aussie dollars. See the links. It says .au That stands for Australian.
 
You live in Australia, right? We have some fantastic members who live in Australia. They will help you out. I suggest you wait for one of them.
 
That RAM is overkill. DDR3 1333Mhz should be more than enough for you. You won't need 1600Mhz unless you're overclocking. You won't even need DDR3 RAM, haha. Choose another motherboard.

What size monitor do you play on? What case are you using? Do you need a hard drive?
 
got a 19" widescreen. some el cheapo case but i got another thermaltake shark case.. got heaps of hdd's

also i got 4 gig of xms ddr2 ram but the other mobo was ddr3 so then i changed the ram... but i guess i can get another 4 gig of xms2 if im gonna get a ddr2 board... thought that p5n was a ddr3 but found out it was a ddr2 board..

also i was gonna get a bigger psu coz i needed more pwr to run the gfx card fully...

coz i have a 550w super flower and it didnt run my other 9800gtx+ dark knight so i sold the card to a mate...
