Be sure to get PCI Express support on the new mobo, get
either a new Intel dual core or AMD 64 CPU. ATI has dual
core graphics.
Does your 700-800 £ budget include a new monitor and OS
software?

I built a computer 2 months ago. I bought a Asus A8N Deluxe. An AMD 64
3500+, 2 identical hard drives for Raid 0. 2 NVIDIA GForce 6600 GT cards for
the SLI motherboard and 2 lots of 512mb SIMMs for around 800-900 quid. Also
got an OEM edition of Windows Pro.

Go to your local PC games store and ask them what they'd recommend for your
part of the world.

Of course you want Fastest CPU, Compatible Mobo, PCI Graphics, 1Gb + RAM,
>200Gb HDD, DVD Reader or Reader/Recorder.

Always go for a balanced performance: no use getting fastest CPU and lousy
Video Card or <512Mb memory as this will cause real bottlenecks and waste CPU
performance.
