Hi, I'm from Jakarta! I want to build an old PC using DDR2 or DDR3 or something like Am3 or Am4. I need it to work well for a long time. If I use Intel, I should have a stable system for a while.

1. Which old Intel G31 or G41 would work? I'm thinking about using Windows 8 and need a motherboard that still works with lots of RAM and overclocking. I also need a solid board that can handle many PCI cards and fans.
2. I plan to use three 2.5TB HDDs (including two from my laptop) and one Wi-Fi card with a PCI slot that has four fan pins. I also have a USB 3.0 PCI port.
3. My current setup is an old Russian PSU 480W and a PC case called Armageddon T7. I'm not very familiar with tech terms, so please don't expect me to be a tech expert.
4. Can these old CPUs work with Windows 8? Most motherboards only support Windows 7. I really need help discussing this while we build.
