This is what im thinking.

New mobo- Abit "FATAL1TY AN8", heard its a sweet mobo to over clock, but no sli

new processor- mine is 754 and for pci-e i need 939, so im thinking maybe might go with 64 4000+ or FX-53 (would go twith FX-55 if I can get a good enough price).

monitor-I want to either get that new dell 24" monitor or a apple 23"

video card-thinking of x800xtpe unless i go with SLI, but not sure

ram- think my ram is fast enough for this system?

ok thats seems to be all for now :)
 
personally I see nothing wrong with your system, but this is coming from the kid with the Dual Xeon Rig. I mean that is also another opition. For the money that you are gonna spend on a fx-53 or 4000, you gonna get better performance out of a duallie.
 
hmm never thought about dual, mainly bc im kind of an AMD guy ;)

but doesnt dual really not mean double speed? more like i could play a game on on one processor, and use the other to surf web and they owudlnt affect each other?
