OK. Tax return should be getting me about $600 Aus. So, I need a new Motherboard, Processor and RAM. I'm good for HDDs, GFX and Sound, so people, give me some advice.

Well, what I'm after at the moment is advice on the best way to upgrade this:

P3-866,
Soyo POS Mobo,
512 of shoddy SDRAM,
GeForce4Ti4200,
Hercules Gametheater XP,
Assorted HDDs

To a new high-end rig. Like I said, I need a new Mobo, Processor and RAM. What can people recommend?
