Here is the deal, I either upgrade my system currently to a pIII 800 or build a 1Ghz athlon machine. These are the prices. And mwave does not have the msi kt7pro2a board. Just the no "a" version.

Please take time to review this. I am unsure whether or not to build an entirely new machine or just upgrade what I have at this point. I would like the price to be somewhat around $1000 but with the athlon machine, it might not be possible to keep it around there.
I do have a monitor, operating system, and keyboard and mouse as well as speakers already so I do not need those.
Thanks for reading this.
