    Default Pentium 4 processor problem

    I have a Pentium IV processor based system and I am going to upgrade It mainly for moderate gaming. My current configuration is: Intel P4 2.8 GHz, Intel D945GNT motherboard, 2x 512 DDR2 533 MHz Hynix RAM, 160 GB Seagate SATA HDD, ATX cabinet with 400 W PSU. I am opting to replace my processor, motherboard and RAM with the following components: AMD Phenom II X3 720 BE, MSI K9A2GM-FIH motherboard, 2 x 2 GB DDR2 RAM (probably 800 MHz). I need to ask you some questions though.
    Your thoughts on the configuration and your suggestions?
    Will my PSU be able to handle the power load?
    Is It possible to fit the MSI board, which Is minl-ATX Inside my ATX cabinet?
    Please suggest If possible.

    Your choice of components is for upgrading your PC is good, and don't worry, your PSU can handle the load. Instead of the MSI K9A2GM-FIH consider the ASUS M3N78-EM (GeForce 8300). It has all-solid capacitors and a more powerful GPU. ATX cabinets can accommodate mini-ATX motherboards
