3.2GHz Pentium 4 800Mhz 2MB Cache Skt 775 Asus P5P800 M/B Thermaltake CL-P0092 Heatsink/Fan With Artic Silver compound 512MB Kingston, then Upgraded to Corsair 2GB Dual Channel Maxtor 200GB SATA HDD LG 16X52 DVD-ROM NEC 16X16 DVD+/-RW Mitsumi Floppy Drive Point of View GeForce 6200A 256MB (AGP) then up to PNY Verto GeForce 6800 GT 256MB  eBuyer Black Case with Clear side Panel, 550W 30A Gold PSU With Blue and UV Cold Cathodes What yall think? By the time in all done it should be costing around £800, but its only £380 before the 2GB RAM, 6800GT, PSU, Heatsink/Fan and other little bits. |

You can get the 6800GT in AGP can't you?
Anyway, ya, i'd go with AMD and PCI if i were you, but then again i don't know what all you want to do with this computer, so u might just want to go with pci and intel.
