320GT I believe was a renamed product of a 285GTX
Just as how the 250 GTS is the same as a 9600 GT
For the motherboard look for a updated chipsets. As they provide support for USB 3.0, Sata 6 gb/sec, make sure it has room for 1 extra Graphics card slot. PCI-E x8 isn't that big of a performance loss.
Having the extra slot will let you upgrade in the future if you ever need to.
The chipset is 880G (northbridge) + SB850 (southbridge)
CPU- Go with a Phenom II x4 965, don't go with Phenom II x6 as you won't be needing the extra firepower.

I forgot this was strictly for gaming purposes. AMD has good CPU's but not the best.. is what I ment to say.
