have a look here

i think a abit ip35 pro mobo will be better...lcd's are improving and ghosting is a thing of the past , reconsider that.
the poweer supply u need will depend on the g-card u buy.
rest are ok .. buy transcend/kingston 800mhz.if u plan on higher OCing consider corsair.

Well its good but as sagargv mentioned abit ip35 pro is better but it doesn't have onboard video as DS2R have.
Also u can save some money by buying abit IP-35-E and buy any low end graphics card if you don't have one!
