I already knew that.

All I need to know, how will the motherboard fit in the case, and is a 350W psu good enough?

Those questions are for this set-up:
AMD Athlon II X4 630
Asus M4A89GTD PRO/USB3
Kingston ValueRAM KVR1333D3N9K2/4G
Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD502HJ, 500GB
Sony Optiarc AD-7260S
AOpen ES45F (includes 350W psu)

For the gpu. You're right, the mobo got a build in gpu.
It should be able to play my games well enough for me

I will upgrade that card whenever I please.

All I need now is a wireless pci card.
No idea what to look @ also no idea how much a cheap one will cost.
Our wireless internet is pretty good, around 20MB/s?
That's all I will need to complete this build. (and coolpaste

Oh, and is there need for any specific screwdrivers when building a pc?
I haven't got experience building one. Do have experience opening pc's looking at stuff. I know what everything looks like. Saw several pc's. Replaced stuff. etc etc...
Anything else I need to know before building this pc?

Edit: I have no idea if this works, and is a good idea. But what about this wireless pci card? Edimax EW-7128G 11g wireless PCI network card
It's really cheap. Got two reviews @ tweakers.net both really positive. I found it by searching for 'wireless pci' this got 2 5 star reviews.
Good idea? bad idea? Suggestions?

Screwdriver... a standard big + head (Phillips? I forget) screwdriver is all you need. I used to have one with a nice big green handle, until someone let someone else borrow it and I never saw it again. You may also want a magnetic screwdriver (they usually don't have a head, just a magnetic tip) incase you drop any screws in hard-to-reach places,

My experience with Edimax is that they work fairly well, but are a little bit prone to weak signals if there are more than 1 "obstacle" between it and the WiFi Access Point (meaning wall, ceiling, certain types of paint, and the computer itself in some cases). Then again, the same applies to most WiFi products, although I'm usually fine with Belkin products (even though some people have bad experiences with them too... then again, people have bad things to say about every WiFi manufacturer...) no matter where in the house I am.
