Right now:

K7VTA3 Motherboard SiS or some shit. No PCI-E. AGP
Chaintech 6600 AGP vid card (stutters even with a reliable power supply, not all the time but it happens - have to reboot system when it does. . .this occured even WITH a 500W powersupply in there with all the +12V bullshit - gonna sell it to some asshole online)
AMD 2100+ or so CPU.
1GIG PC3200 DDR200 (is that right. . .fuck if I know what the two numbers mean) ram.

Motherboard: simple! Get the latest Asus that supports PC3200 RAM.
CPU: These guys are on crack... unless you plan on doing CPU intensive tasks, I don't suggest anything higher than an AMD64 3700+ (socket 939, so make sure the Asus board supports them)
Video card: Ati X850 Pro should suffice. Powerful enough for most games, not too expensive either (I got mine in Canuckia for 300$, so it should be 250 or less for you)
