Ok, it looks like the time to build my new computer has finally arrived.

Here are my current decisions:

Mobo: EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 Ultra.

Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Venice 1GHz FSB 512KB L2 Cache Socket 939.

Memory: CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM Unbuffered DDR 400.

I'm having some trouble deciding on a graphic card, however. I'm not a big gamer. I do enjoy games every once in a while, but the jist of it is...as long as I'm able to play Age of Empires 3 when it comes out, I'll be a happy man. So, I'd like to get something pretty affordable, but I don't want to get a bargain basement card, either. I'd like something that'd at least be capable of playing most games out there, even if not at the highest resolution.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I just built that exact rig, with the MSI x800-128 ($120 after rebate).

Sytem flies, very happy with it.
