Congratulations on your "new" gaming system. Retro is popular these days.
Just finished a retro build myself.
mobo - Abit kr7a
cpu - athlonXp 1700
ram - 256mb ddr pc3200
graphics - voodoo4 4500
sound - sb live
hdd - maxtor 20gb ata133
os - win98se
Apparently there is high demand for 3dfx cards right now. Unfortunately they are fairly poor performers compared to competitors in the era. I ran a ASUS GeForce2 in the same system as above and get *much* better frame rates. And achieved almost triple the benchmark scores. Even so. Simply running a 3dfx card ups the coolness factor.
