getting my taxes back soon and I want to upgrade my system, right now I have the following

Pentium 4 1.6ghz ( willamette, i think )
Intel mobo dell oem
2x512MB DDR PC3200 Mushkin *keeping
16x Lite-on DVD-ROM *keeping
16x NEC 3500A DVD±RW DL *keeping
20gb Maxtor drive *keeping
160gb Maxtor drive *keeping
ATi AIW 9600XT *keeping
all housed in a crappy dell case

Not what I'll mostly be using this for is graphic communications ( using illustrator,photoshop, 3d, etc...), and some gaming, mostly Star wars Kotor ( I and II ) and gta: sa when it comes out, as well as watching dvds

It needs to be under $475
heres what I have so far.

CoolerMaster Centurian 5 $79.99
Amd athlon64 3000+ 90nm ( winchester ) $155
Soltek SL-K8TPro-939 $106
maxtor 160gb sata $95.45

which brings the total to $459.41 with shipping

what do you think?
 
Nice, although you can probably work a Mail-In-rebate deal on a hard drive and get that for less. Good luck! :p
 
Might i suggest purchasing a seagate hdd from outpost.com? It has a 50 dollar rebate and is only 99 dollars right now. They also have a 120gb WD sata drive for same after rebate. I'm kind of in the same boat CPU wise and am interested to hear how your progress goes.
