You have a really nice setup here! Get some Arctic Silver compound for your cpu to greatly reduce the heat of your cpu. If your really into gaming get the Nvidia Geforce series cards. I'm a ATI fan but I've been doing some looking and reviews and sadly the geforce are in the lead at the moment compared to ATI. ATI though has video quality that surpasses nvidia. So if you love media stick with your current setup. I'm just curious what case your going to get. Make sure to get an aluminum case. Can't remember right now but theres a good case by antec i believe thats aluminum and really quiet! If i have time i'll post it up.

Are you overclocking it? If so then your current chip is good.
But if you don't wanna risk it, get an good AMD chip

Have you read any Conroe vs AMD articles lately? http://www.anandtech.com/printarticle.aspx?i=2802
Conroe (Core 2 duo and Core 2 extreme) pwns AMDs [buttocks] and i think its sad, because i was a AMD fan and now i have to turn my back to them and buy myself a Conroe..
Btw, super nice rig, I on the other hand have to keep the costs down, meaning i wont get the X1900XTX for my rig T-T
