These are the three video cards that I am interested in...

I was just wondering, if I do switch to a AMD 64 CPU, what motherboards do you guys recommend? Besides the Asus's K8N-E Deluxe ? I heard MSI has some good boards.
Is it really worth it to switch to AMD 64 now? Aren't most applications...
Wahsapa, any recommendation on another case that will run better with this setup?
I'm not going to play Doom 3 or Halflife 2, so would I need the extra power from a GeForce 6800 nu? Or should I wait 2-3 years down the road and upgrade then???

I was considering AMD, but since I don't overclock I would rather just buy Intel. Every PC that I have bought so far is Intel based, so I guess i'm in partial to that.
I thought DVD RW burner's are able to burn CDR's and CDRW's, but at a lower speed? Can anyone confirm this? I would rather...
