    Id swap out the 800MHz fsb AMD X2 for one that has the 1000MHz fsb
    and swap the NX6600 for a 7800 card (if you can afford 1 that is)

    Also id get a SATA 2 Hard drive (SATA 300) rather than just standard sata as the access speeds are faster

    if gaming i would buy AMD, if numbercrunching i would buy Intel, as for gfx card i would go with ATI, but that is just me and have always gone with ATI Radeon and neva had ne probs, again tho pros and cons.

    If your waiting til the new year to get this pc id suggest holding out that little bit longer until AMD bring out there new 64s with a revised core to support DDR2.

    Id defo go for the AMD option though since theyre better for gaming and it sounds like thats what u want the new rig for

    You can get a 512meg Nvidia 7800 card that has way higher clock speeds than any 512 Ati cards ive seen but thats really down to your personal preference when choosing ATi or Nvidia but nvidias what id go for

    im saying you should read the reviews for both cards that you are concidering one nvidia and one equivilant ATI. see which one YOU think is best and make up your own mind

    :p

    i know its not very helpful but its all down to personal preference. there are good and bad points about both makes. decide which one you think is better of 2 cards that your comparing and go for it
