How long will this hold up....

[BlackTigers91]

I'm building a new system, and would like to have some input on what you guys think here. Heres with what I have to start with:

Case
I have upgraded the PSU to: X-Connect
WD Caviar 200 GB
Samsung DVD Dual Layer Burner

That is pretty much all that I would like to keep. Here's what I am upgrading to.....

Athlon 3500+Venice Core
ASRock Socket 939 Dual SATA Mobo
Eventually-----XFX 7800GTX 256MB
Mushkin Redline 2x512MB

Ok - The only reason I am choosing that mobo is because I have an AGP video card, and would not like to change that out until the next-gen cards come out, or until I get enough money for the GTX. I wont be doing any overclocking, or at least nothing too extreme. For gaming and file sharing really. Will this hold up to the beasts of today, at least for a while? I mean I dont intend to play Quake at Max. Settings on a gajillion x gajillion lol. The latest probably for the video card would be around mid January, will there be any other options by then?

A better option would be getting the Biostar T-force mobo. It comes with integrated nVidia 6100 graphics and still has a PCIe x16 slot you can use when you want to upgrade. I'm sure it's performance and overclockability will be better than the ASrock board. That is all assuming the AGP card you'll use is the FX5200LE listed in your sig.
