I've been looking into upgrades for my PC. I know im definitely going to get one of those new Modular PSU's iwth the window and stuff.

Here's the ordeal:

IC7-G MAXII ADVANCE
2.53GHz P4 (I already have this....Should I upgrade to a 3.0E?)
1GB Mem (I already have a 512 stick of Corsair PC3500...with the 800mhz FSB, is it smart to buy memory at PC3200 if Im overclocking? I like to keep the Timings low in my memory so I dont think 4000 would be the best. I'll probably buy the 1GB and sell the 512mb stick.)

I already have my beloved 9800Pro that I play games with :)
 
when you buy a PSU make very very sure that it is a quality PSU. thats the last thing you want to do is buy a crap PSU that looks cool. the PSU is the heart of your computer. it supplies power to anything and everything in your computer.
sell the 512mb of ram and buy a dual channel set of 1gig ram. thisll be much easier for you(trust me)
the motherboard and the videocard are excellent choices but like i said before...choose very wisely with your PSU. id recommend Antec, Enermax, PC power and cooling(pretty expensive).
