To give you idea on what are the benefits in using Intel Pentium 4 as you Processor, please read the post below.

Features and Benefits From: Intel.com

Versatility, performance and reliability to meet all your computing needs Everyone wants something different from their computer—work, play, Internet, music, learning and more. A PC featuring the Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor opens the door to many new experiences. It's as versatile as you are.

Greater performance with Hyper-Threading Technology (HT Technology)† Hyper-threading enables multi-threaded software applications to execute two software threads in parallel, thereby improving system responsiveness. Intel Pentium 4 Processors enabled with HT Technology deliver performance and multitasking gains that result in increased productivity and efficiency.

Improved Power Management with Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology‡ Intel Pentium 4 Processors that are enabled with Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology allow the operating system to adjust the processor clock down when running applications that require less power. Increased power efficiency brings savings.

Scalability and performance with Intel® EM64TΦ Intel® Extended Memory 64 TechnologyΦ (Intel® EM64T) can improve performance by allowing the system to address more than 4 GB of both virtual and physical memory. Intel EM64T also provides support for 64 bit computing to help handle the applications of tomorrow.

Execute Disable Bit° functionality protects your investment Execute Disable Bit can prevent certain classes of malicious "buffer overflow" attacks when combined with a supporting operating system.

A lot People nowadays love computer games. Some like RPG type of games some like strategic type. But in order for us to enjoy the game, we should have the best quality of video cards. PC games require graphic cards/video cards that are compatible and suitable for the game's graphic requirements. The video cards posted below are the top 3 video cards for gaming based on some surveys I saw in the web.

Now its up to you which one is the best.
