I have a PCI-E slot on my motherboard it says right below it so I'm sure its one but it doesn't have one of those little white clip things at the end of it, so did it fall off or do some not have clips? I'm just wondering because my video card bit the dust and I just want to know if I get a new card will it function alright without a clip?
Well as for what games you will be able to play a good deal depends on a good video card too. You might want to look at some g.skill ram they always seem to be a decent price but are also a good brand. You should be able to take the fans out of your old system and put it in the new tower if you'd like but most towers come with fans and you may not need to put more in depending on temps. As for a soundcard I would imagine the mobo you picked has one and I'm sure its not terrible(i've only ever used integrated sound so I don't know anything about soundcards) but if your old pc has one that can be taken out go for it.
I'm not to up to date with intel chip prices but it seems pretty high, the video cards aren't really that good, I'm sure you could do a lot better for that price. Plus the site seems kinda crappy you sure its a good place to get a pc.
I'd say a 64bit version forsure, there are various differences between the versions. If you click a link to one of them I think it'll have a chart with the different capabilities of them all. Personally I'd got with professional though.
No there are different sizes. Just look at your case and see what it supports like atx, micro atx then look what form factor the mobo is and see if it is one that your case supports.
