800 is more than enough to upgrade your comp.

A new CPU isnt going to be more than 200 (if that) for an AMD 64.
New MOBO is going to be about 60 (ECS is a good board - I've used them).
New Graphics card - 200 for a 7600GT.
Ram - 100 max for 1gig.
PSU - 50-60 bucks.

Reuse your case, hard drive, floppy, and possibly even your heatsink (if the CPU doesnt come with one).

Probably have some scratch left over for a snazzy new Monitor too.

I have just used one of their P4 boards and I am very impressed
the onboard ATI GFX run BF2 (low settings of course) and it has sata and raid etc all in all a cool board.
