But all the reviews say I need a low-profile video card! I really want this video card too:

But I don't know if its low-profile or if it will fit! please help me!

This is the list of what I want:

MotherBoard:

CPU:

Ram:

I was wondering if the power supply (230 W) that comes with the case will be enough for all this! Please help!

The motherboard you picked requires a 24 pin ATX plug and the one with the case is only a 20 pin ATX. The 240 watts probably would just power the system with no added video card.

You have a problem. You want a high end gaming card. There isn't a micro ATX power supply in the world that's going to power it. Low profile in that particular case means a card that offers a half height bracket - and there are no cards above entry level that offer that. The only way you are going to get what you want is with a little case that can handle a full ATX power supply - and has full height slots, possibly with a riser card that will put the slots sideways. I don't think I've ever seen a PCI-E riser card.
