mmk, both are descent choices, here is what id do:
(Kinda looks like my system, but with a better video card )

- AMD AthlonXP 2800+ - $120
- Abit NF7-s - $85
- Kingston Value 2700 Dual Channel 1Gig - $170
- Some sort of CDRW/DVD Combo - $40
- WESTERN DIGITAL 80GB 7200RPM SATA HARD DRIVE
-Creative Labs Sounds blaster 2ZS - $70
- Antec Super Lanboy
- Antec Truepower 430 PSU
- First x800xtpe or 6800U you can find
- A good display

A good monitor is important, what kind are you looking for, CRT or LCD?
I would recommend a CRT, 19", looks better and is cheaper than a LCD!

As far as the processor goes, i would say get the AMD64. And thus you would be getting the ASUS A8V motherboard.

How much were you planning on spending?
