Not sure if you meant a different card, but the X800 *not XL/XT* isn't that great. Definitely get the X800XL at the very least.

Also, more RAM will help if you are looking to not upgrade this computer again for a long time. But then again, 1GB sticks are really expensive and can't keep up with the performance of 512MB sticks. As more people need them, manufactures will make them cheaper and faster.

Also, I'm not a fan of Gigabyte. DFI makes the best A64 PCIe mobo, it's an SLI motherboard, though.

Antec PSUs aren't that great. OCZ Powerstreams are good. If you really want the best for your new kick ass system, I highly suggest getting a PC Power and Cooling 510 Express/SLI.
