Spend the $132 you won't regret it. Definitly worth it to upgrade to a 9700
PRO over a ti4600. Everything else looks good. I would try to get into the
800mhz bus intels if possible too.

I would agree at this point on the Motherboard.  I have an Asus P4PE (845PE)
but the new boards (875 I believe) will do the 800 MHz FSB chips, so I would
probably go that route instead.  But the Combo you have listed is definitely
a good one.  Using the 2.53 P4 CPU, you would probably be just fine with
what you have listed.

I haven't checked to see if the price looks competitive though.
