I think you are in need of RAM also as P3 RAMs cant be used in todays computers :( also there is another major problem.. With your 2 IDEs, there port left for any optical media unless you plan to run SATA optical media..

So unless you have these devices, along with your processor and motherboard, you would be in need of RAM + SATA Optical drive + PSU (SMPS)..

Do you have separate budget for these products or you would need these under 10k also ??
