so ive got a aging system im wanting to replace completely.
p4 2.8
1gig old ass ram
6800 128mb agp vid card
tiny hd
blah blah blah
my current gaming needs are hl2/source engined games with the desire to play cod4 all at 1680x1050 res. even with turning down graphics options and resolution my frames barely increase(cpu limited?). id like to keep my budget around $600 or so and would definately like a good overclockable system for a good bang-for-the-buck=) id like to find some ram and mobo that will work with future cpu/gpu upgrades which my current system lacks. i was thinking along the lines of
e2160
P35 based mobo
2gig ddr800 ram
ati 3850
???
any advice or opinions would be greatly appreciated
