Hello, I want to upgrade my desktop pc. It has an old intel motherboard with the old socket 478. Anyways im looking to change everything. I will change my motherboard,cpu,ram and power supply. So I decided im going AMD cuz their cpu's are cheaper than intels. So,

1) I need a good mobo with integrated graphics about $100 give or take 15 bucks. Dunno whether i should get AM3 socket or AM2+.
2) I also need a good cpu about $100, Im not into gaming, i use my pc for encoding,downloading,compresing etc.
3) I aso need good RAM suitable for the AMD processor(btw im running win xp 32 bit )
4) I also wanted to ask should I get a 430 W antec power supply or do I need more?

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanx
