Replying to New computer

Well im looking to get a new computer for school, which I will be starting here soon. I already have a G4 Powerbook for most of my actual schoolwork, but I would like a fast pc deskop too.

I want to do gaming, video editing, 3d editing (have not done a lot of this, but it is an interest), photoshop, general internet browsing. I will probably end up dual booting linux and windows; linux is another one of my recent interests.

I have to talk to my grandparents (they are the ones paying for it) but I dont think I can go above $2000. Budget may be less then $2000, but it wont be less then $1400.

I pretty much wont buy anything but ATI and AMD, unless someone has something to say here that will change my mind, so here is what I was looking at:

AMD X2 4600 64
MSI mobo
2 gigs ram(2x 1 gig sticks)
80gig HDD (probably will end up getting an external 200gig or something)
ATI x850 platnum 256mb
Win XP pro 64 bit

$1800 from cyberpowerinc.com (have used them before, like them a lot)

does this sound good? do you think it will be worth wating for the Mobos that support dual ATI cards to come out? Is that a good price? Any other suggestions?
