My pc broke about a month ago, and i just got the money to save up. I have about 450 dollars to buy new stuff. All i need is a motherboard, ram, and a processor. I am heavly into gameing, i want something that will run hl2. I currently haVE A 9600, in july i will be buying a 9800Xt. Which should i get...
1. GIGABYTE "GA-7NNXP" nForce2 Ultra 400 Chipset Motherboard
2.AMD Athlon XP 2500+ "Barton", 333 FSB, 512K Cache Processor (overclocked as high is it can go)
3.Thermaltake Voice Controlled Cold Cathode Fluorescence Lamp
4.ROUND, 24-Inch, True ATA133/100, IDE Cable, 3-Head ( YELLOW )
5. Pmi Turbo Memory Dual Channel Kit 184-Pin 512MB (256MBx2) DDR PC-3700
6.Arctic Silver Premium Silver Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound
7.ZALMAN CNPS7000A-Cu Pure Copper CPU Cooler
8.Dynatron Aluminum Hard Disk Driver Cooler with 2 Ball Bearing Cooling Fan
or
1. Amd 64 bit 2800+
2. CHAINTECH "VNF3-250" nForce3 250 Chipset Motherboard for AMD Socket
3.A-DATA 184 Pin 512M DDR PC-4000, Model ADBJC1916 - OEM

What one should i go with? Is it worth it to go with the 64 bit system and lost all the extras. Or should i go with package one and get all of the goodies. What should i change in the packages? What is the ulimate rig or 450 dollars?
