building new pc

I currently have an AMD k6-II 250Mhz running at 500Mhz on a Socket 7 MB. I want to upgrade to a faster processor, but that entails a new MB since I can only upgrade to a k6-III and I want to go over1Ghz.

I need to know what all should I know before shopping for a new motherboard and processor.

Am I going to need new sound, video, and memory? I just bought two sticks of memory a couple of months ago and my video card is a GeForce2. I’m running on Win98se but I also what to upgrade to XP.

Basically should I bother building it or should I just get a completed system?
