The mobo you mentioned is good but for the first time in my life i can say for certain that intel has really come out with beautiful chipsets which will support all the processors (H.T also)so its good to get a system which is top of line and gives you the flexibility
for example intel granite bay chipset 7205 it is i think
and even gigabyte has a excellent mobo in GA-8INXP
so go and buy that i am sure if you search around you will get a good deal on that too

Well since you will have the fastest P4 Chipset (SiS655)! The only thing i can think of is your grafic....why not a ati radeon 9700 pro?

All good choices except possibly the RAM. I'd go with a CL2 instead of 2.5, and I'd get 2 of them (probably 2x256 megs).
