£300 Upgrade

[blairw]

Hi there, current spec is as such -

3200 AMD 64 @ stock
1 gig Ocuk Value ddr400
ASROCK dual sata mobo
6800 GS 256mb
80 + 300 gig hard drive.

I am planing a £300 upgrade at the moment, as windows is runnning slow (vista but going back to xp) and I will be using a lot of professional apps soon (photoshop, visual studio etc) so need some more speed. This is what I have came up with.

This will let me keep my 6800GS until i can buy a 8800GTS for UT3 and such nearer the time, but will let me get a much quicker system in the mean time, and with the help of a agp gfx card i can keep the other system running

Any suggestions?
