well for starters it would help to know what other components you have so when know what kind of compatibility you'll need.

What ram are you using DDR -DDR2 - DDR3?
Video card - need an agp slot? Pci-e??
Need anything else?

edit: something like this would work well Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, LED LCD TV, Digital Cameras and more!
