This build would be used for light gaming (warcraft 3) and such. Any comments before i buy or anything i over looked?

Also, would it be worth it to add another 512 ram? Im on sort of a tight budget like $400 which i know is not alot to build a computer but yeah

get a better psu like an Antec psu


512MB works fine with games like warcraft3

You are asking for problems with that motherboard and power supply. Try to budget a little more so you can buy quality components. You really should have a gig of ram for gaming these days. Get a SATA hard drive.

Why the micro ATX mobo? Plus, it's not a quality manufacturer.

The PSU is absolute, utter, complete junk.

Not sure about the ram either. Look at Corsair or Crucial with their value lines. They will be reasonably priced and much more likely to work properly.
