Looks good! You could save some money by buying non-ECC, non-Registered RAM, even though if I had the money I'd be buying it too. It's not essential, but it does have benefits in different areas (mainly error reporting and stability).

For the money you'd spend on a Radeon 9600, not buying a 9800 Pro would be a waste! The Radeon 9800 Pro is only a little over $200 now. The 9600 will be $100-$150; may as well go for the 9800 Pro while the price is low!
