Fuck it, I'll go get a job and be able to build a much better gaming comp.
Must be from canada shops, suggest best set-up.

Here is what I need:
Mobo - Can it be any Phenom II just to be sure.
CPU - AMD I love this CPU http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103674
Memory
PSU
Case
Video card - Most important for a gaming rig, so post the best! Don't be shy with the price.
Fans for cpu & case for extra vantilation (that will be the last thing to choose)

I forgot to say, DDR3 memory would be better and around 250$ for the video card, or just choose whatever but don't make it super duper expensive.

If you don't need an OS, I'd suggest my setup:

Mobo: Asus 790x
CPU: AMD x4 955 (or the AMD x4 965 if you can)
Memory: DDR3 (1333MHz or 1600MHz) 4GB (2x 2GB)
PSU: Corsair 750W (non-modular one to save money)
Case: A matter of opinion. I can tell you that the airflow on the Antec 300 is nice. I'm getting good temps.
Video Card: 5770 xfire or 5850 single (I'm going with 5770 xfire)
Additional Fans: None needed unless if you're overclocking. My GPU temp idles at 33 celcius, and my CPU idles at 30 celcius. My temps never go higher than 49 celcius on my GPU, and never higher than 41 celcius on my CPU (something like that).
- Depending on your case, you may want to purchase additional fans. If you buy the Antec 300 case, buying two 120mm fans for the front intake, and possibly a side fan also for your GPU setup would work well.

This is not better, it uses plastic, not screws.

This case?

Which is the best PSU within those 3? I'm only going with Antec/corsair for the PSU.

I don't plan of overclocking anything.

I don't need a HD nor a dvd drive.

I need a Directx 10.1 video card, I use windows xp

A cheaper mobo would let me spare more for a better video card.
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131603&Tpk=m4a77td This one?

http://www.newegg.ca/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.311439.13-131-603

The ram thing on it, does it mean I can install 1033 and higher? Like the gskill ripjaws 1600 ddr3 2 x 2gb : http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231277

You need to get 64BIT in order for the OS itself to register that it's an actual 4GB in your mobo. It doesn't cost any more money to get 64bit and if you are planning to get a DX10.1 card.
