Well if I was building a really nice game machine I would get the Asus
Striker Extreme. But the Asus M2N32-SLI is a bit more sane. If I
decided that SLI was never going to be of interest, I would probably
just get one of the Asus P5B series with the i965 chipset.

I guess it depends on the price, and what type of connectors you need.
Silent sounds nice, although even a plain 7600GT is usually rather
quiet.
It does look like a number of companies are replacing the 7600GT with
the 8600GT now. Not sure how they compare. I think nvidia has driver
support for the 8xxx series in linux by now, but I am not sure.

Well the Dell 3007WFP-HC looks nice, but probably the Dell 2007FP or the
2407WFP are more reasonable. My father uses a 2007FP and it is a very
nice panel.

Usually gives the best result. And it's great fun to assemble things
yourself.
