Default help needed with upgrading pc...

hi all,

i have decided to hold off on the mac for a while and instead i am going to upgrade my PC.

I need something that will be future proof and will cope with HD editing when that arrives.

I currently have a socket 754 AMD XP3000+... i was thinkin of going for the X2 AMD 3800.. I think the dual core is essential now.

Anyone recommend me a processor, mobo, RAM and PCI-E gfx card?

Also Iv heard alot about these new conroe chips from Intel... are they better than AMD??

Budget is around £600 for the upgrade.

Cheers
Jonny
