If you are a hard core gamer, probably your best bet is a Athlon 64 AMD processor and over clock it ...you need to get a good motherboard along with it too..like a Gigabyte or Asus or Abit ones...If you are looking for streaming video, PVR kind of stuff I would recommend going for P4..AMD gives you a lot of opportunities for overclocking...while with P4 there are limited motherboards that let you do that. P4s run at higher speeds compared to AMD though..

My system specs are,

AMD Athlon 64 3400+
ati radeon 9600se with 128 mb - i want to get the 256mb one..
1 gig of PC 3200 DDR
250 gb Maxtor IDE
160 gb Maxtor IDE
Gigabyte dual bios motherboard
- onboard RAID
- 4 SATA controllers
- 4 IDE controllers with RAID
- gigabit lan connection
- 4 USB ports
- built in 8 channel surround
- dual bios for redundancy
- AGP 8x

If you overclock your display card and processor you will get excellent performance for your gaming needs...you can probably get scores close to 18000-20000 on 3dmark 2001se with such a system.

Again like the other poster said..what are you needs for this system...a power user or a regular home user ?
