Nice one, you may be able to bump the graphics card upto a 7900GS after all

To confirm, you alrady have a PSU and 2GB DDR RAM and need us to suggest the rest for you? Do you need a new copy of windows, or is that sorted?

I would consider these:
X2 3800 socket 939
Motherboard, i went for a price point here rather than a product i knew was good, so if people have better suggestions please share (also $10 MIR)
XFX 7900GS with $20 MIR this is the cheapest 7900GS on newegg
WD 160GB HD
Lite On DVDRW

That brings the total to $519 before MIR's and no shipping, all you need to do is choose a case you like the look of in the $50-$70 price range and you are good to go. Anyone manage to price up anything better?
