After much (good) advice received on AMD upgrade, I wonder if the following Pentium meets with approval? (based against AMD XP2200 & msi K7N2-L)

msi845pe max-l mobo (ms6580 v2.0)
pentium 4 2.4 pc533 (northwood)
ddr-dimm PC2700 512 mb

Is the board up to it (seems cheap price) - not into games, but a bit of digital editing. What is biggest reasonable HD i could expect to use?
 
Have been advised that msi mobo is PANTS - so, wondering if Abit BG7 would be a good compromise for my P4 2.4 (533).

will 350W PSU be sufficient, or perhaps 400?

Finally, decent graphics card for the little tinker? (not asking much)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
