I'm getting this in a month and a half if I'm actually able to keep my job.
I'm giving the 19" to my brother and I'm using the 19" widescreen. while his 17" is my second monitor for IMing and such.
I might buy 2 1GB sticks of RAM to relieve some of the work that the comp does for managing four sticks of 512s which means I will probably have 2 sticks of 512s for sale. (PC3200 Geil value)
The video card is going to fucking own every game out there for now, it can probably handle (Elder scrolls IV) Oblivion with all settings on the highest and res on 1280x1024.
The processor is definitely a step-up. The opteron is for server boxes only but from the reviews, its pretty awesome considering theres a 1MB lvl 2 cache and its much cheaper than the toledo core thats about $400+.
The case is def. recommended by one of my friends since she has one and says there's loads of room to work around with but lots of wires and shit.
If anyone of you have any better alternatives that are cheaper than what I have there, you're welcome to suggest!
