Ok, here is my reccomendation.

Get at least 1-2 gig of ram. 1 for performance, 2 for an investment. Get either an agp or pci-e capable mobo/vid card. Again, agp for performance, pci-e for an investment. Whatever you do for video, make sure it has at least 256mb o mem if you don't want to buy another one in a year. I would reccoment a 3.0 ghz athlon processor probably with at least an 800 fsb. Make sure you trick out your case excessively (fans, leds, etc.). Also, don't buy cases with too many protruding parts that are just asking to get broken off.

so, there's my 2 cents

edit: ma bad, highest amd i have seen is a 2.8 w/ 1 ghz fsb
