Your parts look great. I personally hate the case, but that doesn't matter much. I'd grab an Ati 5850 and don't forget you need a cpu cooler. If I were to change anything, I'd swap the 23" monitor for a 24" even though they're the same resolution. Opinions vary, but I prefer the larger size when gaming. You should be able to find a 24" of the same quality as the 23" for roughly the same cost. You did good, though. I have no probs with your parts list.

I would reccomend getting either a 5850 id you can afford it. If not just get a Radeon 4850 or Gefore 9800gtx+. Either of them with the 1GB model will do fine and give you a very good mid-ranged rig.
