Thinking of upgrading my computer. not too sure what to do since funds are limited.

i currently have an athlon 64 3000+ 1 gig ddr ram, ati radeon 700 pro 256.

i have 500 canadian dollars to work with, plus 200 gift card from best buy. i'm looking to get a cpu, motherboard, memory and a videocard. you experts out there have any advice or such? I could use the help.

Thanks
 
what socket type is your processor?you need to post your model or the full specs so I know what type of cards you have to know how to help you.
 
well i was thinking of getting a new motherboard/cpu/ram/videocard.

now i know i dont have too much money but i found this that looks good.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Windsor 2.6GHz 2 x 512KB L2 Cache Socket AM2 Processor

ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe AM2

1GB DDR2 800MHz

ATI X1650Pro PCI-Express 512MB Video Card

Seems like it would be a good upgrade for me now, it fits the budge and would allow for future upgrades later.
 
or i could get something like this for alittle bit cheaper then what i posted above
