It's not really going to come down to CPU at all (AMD/Intel). With affordable processors in the 1.5-1.8Ghz range, there is more than enough speed to satisfy any game out there. Get yourself a quality motherboard, then either a GeForce2 or 3 (not the MX versions) or an ATI Radeon video card. IMHO, GeForce for pure speed, Radeon for good speed and best picture quality.
