You might want to edit that title a bit since right now its pretty misleading.

You won't get decent stuff for the value of your old parts, how much extra money you have?

look at this stuff - http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=m2n78-la+violet6+motherboard&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc
people been selling the motherboard for around 150 to 200 if they are working, and mine is in perfect condition. Probs because it is discontinued
If I also sell my CPU - http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?_sacat=0&_nkw=amd+630+cpu&_frs=1
people buy it for anywhere from 50 to 80 bucks.

That adds up to about 210 - 280 bucks.

With that, I can buy this motherboard - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128565

this PSU - http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-eXtreme-Supply-RS500-PCARD3-US/dp/B001G0WPLK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1358610016&sr=8-1&keywords=PSU+500w

and this new CPU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103727

and if I am lucky, maybe a stick of nonidentical ram  - http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-ValueRAM-1333MHz-KVR1333D3S8N9-2G/dp/B004QXT98Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1358610448&sr=1-1&keywords=ram+ddr3+2gb

My dad doesn't need to spend a single cent. Why should he care?

Someone putting something for sale for $180 does not mean he will get those $180.

Also you'll need a graphics card and since your mainboard has 2 channels you'll need a set of 2 sticks of ram.

Oh, lol, whoops.

You can't just wildly "combine" memory sticks. It will most likely throw up a bluescreen if you do.

[Titanium Man]

What card is it?

An old 5670
