And Dell managed to get on my nerves today...

Could you re-use the Dell case? I don't know what the Xeon bolt pattern it. You should also check the wattage on the power supply. You may be able to re-use that.
I just built an i7 PC and had a lot of fun doing it. That said, it's usually the same price or cheaper to buy it bundled. Although not having to buy Windows will help and you'll have to take that into consideration.
