Well, I tested the new memory with my old mobo and it seems like the DIMM slots are busted so I will be getting the new computer. Here are the specs of my new computer:

AMD Athlon 64 3500+, around 90-95€ probably
MSI K8N Neo2 FX, about 60€
1Gb Kingston ValueRam DDR400 CL3 Kit
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 160Gb SATA/3Gb 8Mb cache, ca. 60€
LG DVD DL burner
Club3D Radeon X800RX 256Mb GDDR3
Maxtor DiamondMax 9+ 80Gb UltraAta/133
Antec SmartPower 2.0 450W

The good thing about the MSI mobos is the D-Bracket which comes standard with most of 'em, so you have diagnostic LEDs on which you can see what's wrong with the computer if it won't start or work properly.

And about the SATAII thing, usually people immediately understand it's the SATA/3Gb you're referring to when you say SATAII.
