Solve : Motherboard and Power supply?

1.	Solve : Motherboard and Power supply?
Answer» HELLO, I'm currently going to be BUYING a motherboard, but I'm not very KNOWLEDGEABLE. I have a full ATX sized tower and I know I'm going to be buying an AMD processor. http://www.directron.com/hdz965fbgmbox.html Even though I'm buying it for a bit cheaper than that site offers, it's just for the specs. I realize I have to buy a motherboard with an AM3 socket, but i'm not to sure on what other specs would be very significant. Also, I noticed several micro sized motherboards had am3 sockets and was wondering whether the size REALLY mattered for a gaming computer. I know the size may help with FUTURE upgrades. Also, I know what pins are, but what exactly does it mean when the specs say 22(+2)It would definatley depend on how you want to upgrade in the future, if your looking to get a big gaming graphics card like a GTX 480 which can sometimes be hard to fit into to standard sized cases, then you might want to look at a larger motherboard.Alright, that makes sense. As far as the pins, I need to know what is meant when the specs list it's 22(+2) Also, more suggestions on motherboard specs would be appreciated.
