what would be better for video encoding

One time reply only:

System RAM.

Better: Overclock duron/new system/hardware encoding card.

Quite useless: Overclocked geforce fx 5500.

Encoding doesn't use the graphics card, but it does use system memory. So does integrated graphics. Us one of the agp cards you have, and get the extra ram.
