Since you have an IWill, are you planning to overclock? AMD processor tend to get hot especially if they are overclocked so you might want to buy a good heatsink for your cpu. Copper Heatsink tend to cool pretty well. You can find a review on some copper heatsinks here, http://www.amdmb.com/article-display.php?ArticleID=81 (http://www.amdmb.com/article-display.php?ArticleID=81.) .

get a 750 Duron.... they are really cheap (less than 35 usually) and are VERY overclockable.... even when not overclocked... they are fast...... they can beat PIIIs in benchmarks.... So u save money now and can wait until AMD makes better faster procs or the current ones become dirt cheap....

Get a SB Live Value sound card... those are cheap.

Dont get a modem if u plan on ggoing broadband....else get the cheapest 56k v90 u can find.

Get a Flat screen (NOT flat monitor) 17" or 19" (if u r a big gamer). I would recommend the KDS Avitron 17"

Get some keyboard and a scroll mouse.

Get good quality speakers.... Cyber Accoustics makes a 5 piece set for less than 50buxs

Get some CHEEEEEp floppy drive... (price-vise) newegg has some cheap ones.

Get a Plexwriter 16/10/40 CD-rw. They are SUPER high quality.

Get a 16X DVD drive (less than 80buxs)

that's all i can remember now

You might also try a Graphics card

Try the Geforce 2 cards, depending on budget aim for the GTS. Or if u'r loaded go for a Geforce 3
