Pimping it up

Well, I need to update my computer, becuase I am compulsive and have extra money. My budget is around $550 for a CPU, and around $300 for RAM, give or take a some, but I'd prefer it to be on the cheap side.

My current specs:

Mobo: LANPARTY UT nF4 Ultra-D
CPU: AMD 64 Atholon 3200+ (socket 939)
Ram: Mushkin Dual V2 *1 GB* 512 x 2 DDR 400
Videocard: Radeon Visiontek X850 XT 256 MB (PCI-E)

I want to update just my CPU and RAM for around the listed price. I'm not sure what I should get, anyone have any link? (newegg.com) I want another AMD 64 though. And I want 2 Gigs of ram. Oh, and if you couldn't allready tell... its for gaming.

I've allready found a couple CPU's that are around my price limit:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+

RAM:

Corsair XMS 2GB (2 x 1GB)



'm really looking for some great ram, great for gaming that is. If you know of any, please help me out.

Thanks again guys.

-Happy Holidays


(P.S. Try to make sure it will work with my Mobo)
 
that ram you have selected is prolly one of the best out there- oh and i dont think your mobo supports x2. Athlon 64 and Athlon 64 x2 are 2 tottally different things so the mobo has to say it can use x2.

PS: would you like to sell that 1gb your getting rid of? or are you gonna use it
