    the cpu bites as well as the graphics card, i would get something like a used amd64 mobo cpu bundle off ebay, you can keep the ddr memory and get a pci-e card which will be cheaper than agp.
  • there's a site based in Germany called mindfactory.de who ship to other EU countries that will sell you an X850XT agp for 50£. fast card for little money.
    100£ will buy you a X1950pro, but that'll probably just bottle-neck in your system atm. like the other poster said, another gig of ram won't hurt , and it's dirt cheap these days.
