Allrighty, my old mobo was:

Its pretty bad. Also i had a socket 478 Pentium4 2.66GHz
ati radeon 9600 128mb agp
2gb ddr400 ram
This is the new setup i'm looking at. I know the mobo is kind of trashy but thats eventually replaceable:

This is more than my budget can handle, so i have no option of saving up for a better system. I have to buy all this over a period of 2 months i believe
but anyways, is this a nice upgrade in COMPARISON with my old setup? I hope so. I doubt the mobo is much nicer, but I hear AMD is way better than Intel for gaming.
My original budget was $150, but things kept tacking on (i.e. Ram, gpu) so now all of this is a grand total of about $270.
I have a 350w psu by the way.
Anyways, so yeah is this a half decent comp for good games like WoW and Aion? Thanks in advance and I welcome any opinions and comments (as long as they don't say save my money....etc.)

Update: I actualyl just bought all of this, But i'd still love the same comments you would have given me before
Thanks!
