I'm really sick and tired of my current PC... It's not bad but a lot of the parts aren't working too well. It was originally a "Multivision" computer but they went bust as I discovered most of the parts were faulty. I've done my best to fix it but I find that it's still unreliable. I'm thinking about selling the entire thing... Everything just so I can start over without all the hassles of my current PC. Here's the specs for my current one...
Current
AMD XP 2800+
DFI Lan Party NFII B
512MB DDR RAM
2x Samsung 160GB IDE
ATI 9800XT 256MB w/ VGA Silencer 5
Tagan 480w PSU
CoolerMaster Centurion 5 w/ USB and Firewire
17" TFT Monitor
Creative 5.1 Speakers
Pioneer DVR-105 DVD-RW
Logitech Internet Keyboard
Logitech Laser Mouse
Logitech QuickCam Messenger
Belkin SD/MMC Card reader
Windows XP Pro SP2
Here's the specifications for the new PC I'm thinking about building. I want a good gaming/multimedia PC that doesn't kill my bank account. So I was hoping I could get a fair amount for my current PC (specs above) and buy this one below.

AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Clawhammer Socket 939 - £196
Asus A8N-SLi Deluxe - £111
Corsair 1GB DDR2 5400 - £175

It's very expensive for all of that but with the money I could make from the old one it might be a little less. My budget right now is around £800.
Thanks very much...
