I'm going to be building a new computer soon but I don't know what to buy. I have about 800 dollars to spend, and can keep my case, powersupply, and Monitor.

Here's what I'm using now:
Amd Athlon xp 2200
384MB DDR SDRAM
Gigabyte GA-7VKMP socket A Motherboard
Geforce 6600GT AGP

What can I get for 800 dollars?

How many watts is your psu, and what brand is it?

Do you want to keep your graphics card?

Otherwise, for a new pc I'd say a 3000+ Venice, BFG or similar 939 board, 6600GT, gig of RAM, and a nice Maxtor Diamondmax 10 SATA drive will be within the limits of your budget. There are socket 939 boards that have an AGP slot instead of PCI-e if you want to keep your graphics card [I suggest you do that].
