All depends on what you are going to do on the unit but best to future proof the graphics and spend most of your money on it.

Not bad.
But... 2.8 isn't great. Heh. 3+.
1GB is absolutely fine.
Know absolutely nothing about nVidia cards. I go with Radeon... So if you wanna change, get an X800 etc...
