Hi makaveli

Bad power supply, you need 750W and a good brand for GTX295, I recommend Antec, FSP, Sea Sonic, Corsair and Enermax.
MSI I would keep away from, they are plagued with problems and their RMA service is terrible, I would look at Asus motherboards.
The Q8200 is a weak processor, the E8400 will out perform it any day of the week.
If you plan on gaming, hence the GtX295 I would go with WD Black instead of green.
Good luck.

btw do you think i can put those things in Chieftec DX-01B-D-U 400W (MT) without any probs?

You may have to take out the lower hard drive cage for the Video card to fit in this case

thanks again!

and btw do you think that Toshiba Qosmio x300 158 is the best gaming laptop in range of 2000$ (non-custom ofc)?if not,could you post some names of the other good ones?

I don't really think much of Toshiba products anymore, their quality have gone down the tubes. I also don't think laptops are meant to game, gaming generats a lot of heat, laptops have no way to cool down properly.
