Need help picking out parts to build a PC...

[Loco]

I want to build a new PC. I'll be transferring over most of my current parts. I really just need a case, power supply, motherboard, processor, video card & RAM.

I'll be using the PC for the internet, burning CDs & DVDs & playing games using MAME. I will need a video card w/S-Video out so I can hook it up to my TV.

I'd like at least a 2.4ghz processor (or AMD equivalent) & at least 1GB of RAM. I'm looking to build a budget PC here. The more under $500 the better.

I'd like to buy my parts from new egg since I have always had good experiences w/them. I was looking at bare bones systems, but have no idea what I'm supposed to be looking for there.

so what exactly constitutes "most of my current parts"? Anyways, if you want a budget system, look for like a celeron, a mobo around $80 or so, some value ram, and maybe like an x800 or 6800 series card

Both my IDE HDs, DVD-RW, DVD-ROM, Sound card, etc.

Pointing to to specific parts would be helpful, thanks.
