Everything works together though I have a few suggestions.
Every DX10 card below the 8800GTS cannot run DX10 at playable settings, I recommend getting a higher end DX9 card if you can get the 8800GTS 320MB card.

Never cheap out on the PSU,
I suggest PC power and cooling, silverstone and Antec.

Since your on a lower budget I recommend you go with AMD.

If for some reason you don't like AMD I recommend the P35 chipset for motherboards due to greater upgradability.

Get vista 32bit not 64. There isn't enough support for 64bit windows.
