Is it worth the Upgrade? I have already bought PC133 Ram which adds up to about 384MB and an ATA 100 IBM Hard drive. Should I now go and buy a new mobo and CPU and case for my PC or not? Because the parts above mentioned were given to me by my Uncle who found those aprts to be spare and now I have obtained them should I use them to build a new PC or just put it in a corner for now and see if it will become useful in later days?

All help is welcome!

The Mobo i got now is an Asus K7V using a Slot ype Athlon 650 running at 725 approx. And 192 MB of PC100 Ram, and an ATI 8MB AGP card. Got the CD-writers and Drives, becasue i could take it out of this computer and plug into new one. The graphics card I need new and Mobo, CPU, Case, and maybe Modem, and maybe new Monitor. But apart from these things I have it all. So is it worth the upgrade or should I just leave the parts in a corner until I need them at a much later date for something, like selling it off?

Hm... yea, wait for a KT133A motherboard and get a Duron or Tbird to overclock to 133MHz FSB.

What would be a good Mobo and CPU to buy then? I am bias to getting an AMD, but should I go for Duron and get it up to 1GHz or a Thunderbird and get it up to about 1.15-1.2GHz? And case I have a good idea of what to get.

All help is welcome!

Thanks!
