Current Motherboard info (in my pc right now)
Board: ECS 945GZT-M ECS
Bus Clock: 200 megahertz
BIOS: American Megatrends Inc. 080012 04/18/2007

Hopefully this will be good enough for my upgrading...
This is what i think im going to go with if my motherboard can handle it...

Video card: I might need to go a little cheaper though because im on a tight budget.
Newegg.com - EVGA 896-P3-1255-A1 GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

Processor:
Newegg.com - Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Wolfdale 3.16GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor - Processors - Desktops
or
Newegg.com - Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor - Processors - Desktops

Yes, you could use those parts with that motherboard. If you're going to get any GTX 2xx series card, make sure to have a good PSU. Consider PC Power & Cooling 750W which is on sale and only $90 after rebate.
