    Yeah they should be, and that board's microATX for use with small cases (it will fit into a big case but if you want a big case you may as well buy a normal ATX board).

    cause of the pic (its a small board), and dude i wont recomend u to buy that motherboard since the graphic card slot is agp 8x while u could get a pci expressx16 slot (which is 2 times faster)

    More than twice as fast actually, but it depends what sort of PC he's building, if he's not fussed about graphics, AGP is fine. The PCI express system doesn't become advantageous until the X850 range of graphics cards.
