The ASUS P5K is one really good motherboard.

As a side-note, I'd comment on the graphics card. The 8800GTS is now end of line. No more are being produced. The G92 and G98 are coming out right around the corner (early november). Get a cheap card for now (like the 8600GT) and just wait for the next series.
Also, as the ram price is really low, I'd go with 4GB (2x2GB). 800MHz ram with your set-up is pretty useless, as the CPU has a 1033MHz FSB. Even DDR2-667 can support up to 1333 so...
And I'd think that 850W is pretty much overkill as you only got 1 GFX card in there. I'd go with a quieter PSU.
