And one more question what is the difference between windows 7 home, pro, and ultimate?

Security and business functions for the most part. Use this:

Typical home user will only need Home.

Still a non-issue. Most people won't go over 16 GB of RAM, but still useful to know.

Just one question, are you planning to upgrade your Graphic card in the future? If so I would suggest getting a 650 watt powersupply.

It being pro or not doesn't matter if it uses up the extra ram. 32-bit verison max is 3gb. 64-bit verison goes alot higher. More than 32.
