Is your budget $1000? You can make that Intel build a lot better with $1000 budget (as what you have with your AMD build)
Intel BuildI would change the video card to
XFX 8800GT 512MB as this is way better than the 8800GTS 320MB you listed.
Is there a reason you went with the DFI board? I've heard that its good for overclocking (if you have experience with OC'ing as DFI boards have advance OC'ing features). If you're not overclocking then I'd suggest going with a
Gigabyte EP35-DS3LAlso I'll change the power supply to this
Corsair 550W as its better quality and that Rosewill is out of stock.
