Abit LG-81 motherboard, 1Gb of Corsair DDR2 PC4300 and a 3.2GHz P4

or

ASrock 939S56M, 1gb Geil Golden Dragon ram and a 3000+ @ 2.25ghz

Thanks

EDIT:

Just to expand on this... my sister is after an upgrade. Someone is offering the top set of components and I have the bottom set. Would I be better off giving her my components and keeping the top set, or keeping mine as it is? - she will be using it just for internet, letters and general stuff. I have a x800gto2 and play bf2.... Also, for upgradability, which is better?

Thanks

I'd keep your existing system as it will be far less hassle and should be a superior system in gaming terms albeit there probably isn't much in it.

Neither is all that great for upgradability as far as I know although the Intel system may accept Conroe(maybe with a bios flash) and the ASRock might accept AM2 with an add-in card(no idea how expensive this would be) and you still won't be able to use DDR2.
ok cool, I know the asrock board isnt very good. Is the p4 a good board?
