Answer 1

You've got a pretty good motherboard and probably a quite decent graphics card, especially if that is a 7300GT ddr3 (not powerful enough if just the GS variant).

BUT you may have a problem if your processor is AMD. Your motherboard accepts only Intel processor on the LGA775 format. Your processor options are:
Cheap= Pentium E2140 or 2160
Better = E4300 or E4400
Awesome= Core2 Duo E 6xxx series.

Answer 2

Are you sayin' your cpu is a AMD Sempron64 3000+, or a AMD Athlon64 3000+? MSI 945 boards,(945P Platinum, 945GM3-F, 945P Neo3,045G Uatx, 945 LGA 775),are based on the Intel 945 chipset,(Northbridge, Southbridge), and can only use an Intel processor. Are you sayin 3000 full cache, if so what's that? A Sempron 3000+ with full cache?

Answer 3

there's no guarantee that processor will be compatible with your motherboard without knowing what the socket number is. Is it a socket 775? or a socket 939? or some other socket. the board and the processor need to have the same socket #

Answer 4

that's a question you will ask earlier you purchase, good success on your build. Your going to choose it. yet to respond to your question, you ought to use nvidia photograph card as lengthy as its the bus sort your mobo helps (AGP, PCIe). ATI qualified is there way of exclaiming "it works better with ATI photograph enjoying cards" (yet not unavoidably real).
