Opinions please!

[Alea]

It has been a few years since I looked into getting a new computer.. My old 733 is just tooo slow now. I would like some opinions of these items I want to buy to build my computer.

We use the computer for MS Office, internet email and some gaming (Age of Empires III)

Thanks for any help!

Intel Pentium 4 630 3.00 Ghz w 2mb Cache, EM64T
Gigabyte GA-81915ME-GL W/ DUAL DDR400, Video, Audio, Lan, SATA, AGP / PCI-E
Kingston 512MB PC3200 DDR SDRAM CAS 3

Maxtor 80 GB Diamond Max Plus 9 7200rpm Serial ATA 8 Mb Cache
LG Super Multi DVD Writer 16x16 DVD +/- TV-Out DVI

I'd recommend maybe getting what I have in my sig. I built this computer exactly for the intent of AOE III. I ended up spending ~500 on it. It runs great on my machine!

Its ok to go Intel. Sadly. But what will you be using your computer for?

Explain, please. Intel is good for certain things, but the worst reason to get it is "just because i don't like AMD".

It is personal preference

Just realize that with AMD, you get more for your money.
