New CPU?

Wanted to upgrade CPU? but not enough capital... Somehow I still survey the prices on lowyat.net to gather all the hardware specification and latest price list.But still frustrated looking on the damn lousy list posted by the various shops owner.

To think about it, what is the spec that will fullfil my needs.
So I spent a few hours to scan through the list and here's what I wish.

Processor - Intel C2D E8200 45nm 2.66GHZ FSB1333 Cache 6MB
Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H (Integrated in the NVIDIA® GeForce 7100/nForce 630i chipset... but i wish to have Intel Chipset. Haiz)
Hard disk - Western Digital 500 GB sATA II 16MB (or purchase smaller disk space but for make it 2 hard disk?, haiz... still considering)
RAM - Kingston DDR II 1G 667 (x2) (too bad the motherboard that I select support only up to 2 DDR II slot, how about if next time I wanted to upgrade my RAM to 4GB/8GB?... headache)
Power Supply - ATX Power for AMD & Intel (normal power supply will do)
Casing - Tower Casing (any casing will do as long as acceptable)

DVD Rom - Use back previous hardware
KeyBoard/Mouse - Use back previous hardware
Monitor - Use back previous hardware
Speaker - Use back previous hardware
Graphic Card - Not Necessary (as i'm not a PC gamer)
Sound Card - Not Necessary (as i'm not a boomer)

Well, because of the budget constraint this is only the best hardware that I can aim to purchase. Total accumulation, the price still under my budget.But how do you think? If you are using the hardware mentioned above and you feel not acceptable please let me know!I don't wish to have incompatible issues happen in my machine. Thanks
