I'd say AMD because of overclocking. Intel is better for doing math calculations and stuff so that would mean stuff like video and audio editing. Go with AMD for gaming.

The power supply is 450W, which is good, but you'll probably have someone in here telling you it's not good enough.

The whole sha-bam is $951.96. Pretty cheap! (w/o shipping + tax)

Consider it!

could you please write the specs that would have and thanks very much

If you're going gaming, you'll be spending about $500 or more one the video card. Personally I like ATI, so I'd say go for an X1000 or very close to that. You could get away with an integraged Audio as that's not to important. Get no more then 1GB ram, make sure it's a stick not a kit as a single module will perform best. As for motherboards... been out of the loop too long to make a specific suggestion but I'd say get one that at least has PCI-E.
