that will be a reasonable upgrade m8y

however, i would suggest getting rid of your pc2100 and getting another 512mb pc3200. the difference is probably not much, but every little counts! you could still use the memory you have but the faster memory will slow down to the old speed.

should run pes nicely. :clap:

resinstalling windows gives you the option to format your hard disk during setup. however, make sure you have backed up all you need before you do it!

ps. you might be better off going skt 939/ a64 / pci-e

<a href="http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/97166" target="_blank">this</a> is not bad at £127 + p&p from ebuyer.

you will still be able to use your memory, and you could sell your 9800pro/motherboard/cpu and buy a 6600gt or similar. (however, the hsf is a bit loud and you might be better off buying a quieter one!)
