I'm making a really low budget pc and I need to know if these parts will work out.

[lernax]

I have a seriously outdated motherboard with a S754 A64 3200+ and an AGP 6600GT, I was planning on buying the new ATI 3850 AGP but after doing some research it turns out that my processor will bottleneck the GPU and I won't be able to use it at it's fullest potential. The card I was planning on getting is $224 and also I was gonna buy another gig of PC3200 ram for $50 which would come around $280 with shipping but then I decided that maybe I should just spend a little extra and make a newer rig that can use the card's full potential so I went around www.newegg.com and this is what I came up with:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103775

I'm not that computer savvy so if anyone can please tell me if my choices will work out I would greatly appreciate it!

What do you use your computer for mostly?

What kind of budget are you working with?

Yup, I plan on using it for gaming. Thank you very much for the advice!

I might as well get a slightly better processor also.

Id say $370 since I was originally just gonna buy a better GPU but since a little more will get me a much better machine plus with a little overclocking it should definately meet my needs.

You have a budget of only $370 for a gaming rig? Are you planning on using some parts from your existing computer? If so, please list them.

Make sure you don't skimp on the psu, as it is the most important part.. Use this quide when picking out a good quality unit. http://forum.pcmech.com/showthread.php?t=131195

Oh, looks like my power supply might need to be replaced?

Thanks!

Also, the motherboard I plan on getting has the following cpu specs:

FSB 1000MHz Hyper Transport (2000 MT/s)

and the 4400+ has a hyper transport of 2000MHz, is there an issue here?

Would this board

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...Abit%2bNF-M2SV

be better than this one

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131249 ?

Abit are excellent motherboards, I think you would be happy with either one. I use Asus for the most part in my builds but I have also used a few Abits and I was delighted with them. The Abit however is not better than the Asus.
