I fucking hate coming here for advice. . .but its like a god damned drug -

Im upgrading the components in my computer and need to know what I should get, what I should be looking for.

Right now:

K7VTA3 Motherboard SiS or some shit. No PCI-E. AGP
Chaintech 6600 AGP vid card (stutters even with a reliable power supply, not all the time but it happens - have to reboot system when it does. . .this occured even WITH a 500W powersupply in there with all the +12V bullshit - gonna sell it to some asshole online)
AMD 2100+ or so CPU.
1GIG PC3200 DDR200 (is that right. . .fuck if I know what the two numbers mean) ram.

So - preferably I would like a MOTHERBOARD that supports the ram I have so that I dont need to buy 2gig of PC7800 DDR1MILLION ram and can just get another DDR200. CPU - I would be cool with a 2800+ or so.

What should I be looking for?

As for what I would like:

Motherboard - should be able to fit in an ATX tower. Not looking to upgrade case.

CPU - no fucking clue.

Both above should last be able to last me for awhile, to accomodate future Vid Cards should the need arise.

Video Card - Anything that can run shit at 12x10 without having to jack shit down to LOW.
