Just built a similar system...

Asus K8v deluxe ($68 ) <-- onboard LAN, Sound and IEEE1394

DVI or VGA?

guess the topic sums it up.

I just picked up a samsung flat panel display and it has both DVI and VGA inputs. which is better?

I have both outputs on my video card, so the only thing I need to do is buy an extra cable if it's worth it.
