Right im looking to upgrade my mobo,cpu and memory im looking to team this up with http://www.hisdigital.com/html/product_ov.php?id=292&view=yes. i have a budget of about £250. Im looking for a setup that is stable and future proof, and not likely to easily to overheat as my case is pretty standard. Also to help the games i play are WoW and CS:S and i will be running the system on windows XP to start with and then maybe upgrade to Vista. I would highly appreciate your guys imput :)
 
I don't know what PSU you've got or indeed what else you have so I've left some room in the budget but I'd be looking at something like this.

OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-6400C4 Dual Channel Platinum Revision 2 XTC Series DDR2 (OCZ2P800R22GK) £29.99
(£35.24) £29.99
(£35.24)
Abit IP35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard £69.99
(£82.24) £69.99
(£82.24)
Intel Core 2 Duo E2180 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.00GHz (800FSB) - Retail £46.99
(£55.21) £46.99
(£55.21)
Sub Total : £146.97
Shipping cost assumes delivery to UK Mainland with:
City Link Parcel Next Day (Delivered Mon-Fri)
(This can be changed during checkout) Shipping : £8.25
VAT is being charged at 17.5% VAT : £27.16
Total : £182.38
 
Good choice on the PSU, in which case I'd suggest buying a good aftermarket CPU cooler - the Tuniq Tower is good but has jumped £10 in the past couple of days leaving another two decent options as the Scythe Ninja and Zalman CNPS9500 both of which are about £10 cheaper but more difficult to install. :)

If there harder then the tuniq I'd leave well alone was a right pain in the bum to install on mine :(
