Pentium 4 is quite outdated. You should consider even just the budget Core2 Duo like the E2140, E2160 or the new E2180.

They are amazing when overclocked:

Buy a newer Core 2 processor... more energy efficient, greater clock to effective speed ratio. Plus a new motherboard will give you the benefits of the latest chipsets (look for a P35 board) including faster FSB-speeds.

depends on what you're planning to do with the pc. sounds like you want to do more than the typical user would, so I'd get a better processor plus video cards, etc
