What would you guys do?

Recently my second PC developed a AGP Motherboard fault, which caused the PC to reset when Graphically hard games
were used. So i now have a k6-500 system which i cant use. This machine was only really used for office and settlers 3.
Hopefully to be used as a dedicated server when my router is replaced.

The options are..

New MOBO and cpu bundle and a new case for the atx factor. Mobo and CPU at http://www.ebuyer.com is a pc chips Mobo and
700mhz AMD. Then a cheapo case from the same place. About £90

A PCI geforce2mx 400 64mb graphics card is about £70 from ebuyer

Now i fancy the performance increase in the 700mhz AMD, but the PC-CHIPs MOBO on the above deal may be a bit crap.

What would you do?
