its current configuration is :
intel pentium 4 2ghz (notOC)
ASUS P4S-333 VM motherboard
512mb ddr333 ram
80gb 7200 rpm hdd
the mobo has an AGP 4x slot and i have ASUS GE-FORCE 4 64MB on it

i want to upgrade it to be able to install 6600gt on it
either somebody suggest a component upgrade or one of the upgrades from below:

1-
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 939
ASUS A8N-E mobo
1 gb DDR ram 400 mhz
ge force 6600gt 128mb PCIE

Offcourse AMD but go for 3200+
cuz buying 3000+ or 3500+ both r useless considering Prices...
Buying 3500+ is having too much prize difference though the performance is little more than 3200+
while buying 3000+ is doing Foolishness
