If you get the 64bit processor are you going to run a 64 bit os, like Winxp64bit or maybe compile your kernal to handle it? Other then that go for it.
 
Since your budget is 1600, that setup seems fine. I'd go with a socket 939 3500 because amd said that 939 is gonna be around for a long time which means great upgradability in the future.
 
I'd save on:

Sound card - Unless you have a nice speaker setup or want home audio system or sumthin' a cheaper gaming sound card will do you fine.
RAM - 512MB will do you fine unless you are into memory hogging apps.

And i'd switch to:

Socket 939 CPU - 3000,3200,3500 will all do fine and overclock about the same.
939 Mobo - Abit, MSI, Asus, NF4 is out i believe. Best of the best lol

just my opinion...i think you could afford it if you save on the first 2.
