Basically I am upgrading to a better PC from the one I am using now, and I was wondering if anyone could help me on the subject of them all be compatible with each other, and if any of you would change a certain aspect of my machine?
Here's the list of parts:
CPU: Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4200+ Socket 939 512KB
Motherboard: Asus A8V Deluxe Motherboard
Graphics Card: Radeon X800 Pro 256Mb
Hard Disk Drive: 2 x Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 10 NCQ 300GB 6L300SO SATA 16MB Cache
Memory: Corsair 2Gb DDR 400MHz PC3200
Soundcard: CREATIVE Sound Blaster Audigy 2 SB0400 8
DVD+/-RW: NEC ND-3520A Black Dual Layer DVD+/-RW
Floppy Disk Drive: Sony 3.5" FDD
Case: Extreme Gaming Spider Case
Mouse: Logitek MX510
Keyboard: Saitek Eclipse
Screen: Unsure about at the moment, considering a 19" TFT LCD
That's about it. Just a few pointers on what I might consider changing:

That's about it. Just a few pointers on what I might consider changing:
- The graphics isn't that good, and I was considering upgrading to a PCI Express card (like the GeForce 6800GT). Would that benefit me more?
- Not to sure either about the soundcard. I'm not after anything special, but I would just like a reasonable soundcard that's not too expensive.

All of this should cost me around £1200 ($2200). But the main point I'm trying to achieve is that all the parts are compatible. Also, suggestions on anything you would do differently would be very appreicated.
Thanks very much!!
