They'll last the same length of time, why would they be different? Like I say,

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH ONE YOU BUY, THEY'RE BOTH THE DAMN SAME

Network already comes with your motherboard so you don't need another one. Keyboard and mouse I'd recommend a Saitek Eclipse II and Razer Diamondback, because that's the combination I use.

what about monitor? and would my mother board support that mouse? Because on my pc right now my mouse supports like a circular shaped port only and if i plug it into the usb it doesn't work.. Oh and look at the mother board pics also. And for graphics cards when they reach their idle temperature does that mean it will perform at it's minimum average or still max? and will it still be good? even if it is at it's minimum? peace. dude thanks for everything uve gave me so far. helpful.

Then you have a very old mouse. All new mice work with USB ports, if they have USB connectors.

Idle temperature means how hot the card gets when you're not doing anything. Load temperature is how hot it gets when it is playing games.

All motherboards have supported usb keyboards since around 1999.

And would u recommend raid hard drives? also at their price? ive heard they're the fastest though. And why is the sapphire cheaper does that mean the gigabyte is better since it's worth more? Which would u recommend? I also found the gainward radeon seems to be the best one. it may or may not be better than the toxic. But it costs a lot more so I won't be getting it.

I know someone who has had big issues with a Gainward card, stick to Sapphire or Gigabyte.

FOR THE LAST TIME, THE TWO GRAPHICS CARDS ARE THE EXACT SAME.

I wouldn't recommend Bluray unless you'll spend a lot of time watching high def at your PC and can afford to buy the discs (they aren't cheap, and neither are the drives)

For the HDD, I'd recommend a Western Digital Greenpower - quiet, efficient, cheap, and still perfectly respectable performance.

Also, don't bump threads, it's rude.

So most people would go for sapphire? Since gigabyte is a ripoff?

They're the same. Sapphire might use a different fan profile, but it won't change things much.
