I currently run a AMD 2100 and a Radeon 9600 pro (its old I know) with an ASUS motherboard

Long story short, my computer stopped working, so I am thinking about updating.

Whats a good mobo, processor and vid card for someone who doesn't do any heavy gaming. (Warcraft III is the newest game I play). I have a sound card, so I don't need intergrated sound.

Any recommendations?

if you're casual, you could go for a name branded sys tongue.gif.

otherwise...go for something like an althon x2 3800+ socket am2, 2x512 DDR2 value ram, anybrand(evga,asus,bfg) geforce 7600gt (pci-ex), 320gb seagate HDD, practically any asus/abit socket am2 mobo, 500W PSU, etc. something like this configuration would be very very cheap; sub $1000. and its definitely quick.

of course, this is overkill for warcraft 3....but then...you never know, you might find a new game you might like.
