Not in the last 10 years... I used to use DFI products back when they actually called themselves "Diamond Flower Inc." 8O.. they were decent then. I use Intel mobos for P4s nowadays, but that's because I've gotten conservative about mainboards. (For Athlons, I use mostly ASUS products.)

I don't download music or play a ton of games, so 40 should fit me just fine. Do I need 8MB? Would 2MB be enough?

40GB should be OK, although you might find yourself using more space than you considered.
The 8MB cache is really nice, and I do recommend you go for it, as Windows is fairly disk-intensive.

Maximus has a good suggestion. You might also want to see if you can get an ATI Radeon 9000/9600/9700 for a good price, now that the 9800s are out... I prefer a better GPU myself, since I game a lot.
