You don't need a sound card. You will need a wireless card if you don't plan on hooking your computer to ethernet (rather than wifi) and the mobo in question doesn't have one built in.
Don't worry about cooling, we'll recommend the smartest option within your budget... which is going to be tight with needing an OS, kb, mouse, and monitor in Canada (country of overpriced electronics).
Are you sure you can't get Windows 8.1 cheap or free through sources like dreamspark or friends?
