My advice? Wait.
Intel's new Conroe chip is coming out shortly, and AMD is most likely going to drive prices down in an effort to counteract that. AMD is also introducing a new socket form facter (AM2), which will drive prices down even farther.
Also, don't bother buying a PC from factory. You're much better off assembling it yourself.
As for what parts, the only thing I suggest right now is that you get a 7900 GT. At 300 bucks with performance equivalent to a 7800 GTX, it's a steal.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
