Need New Motherboard and Processor

Hi,

First post here and need a bit of guidance.

Basically I bent and snapped the pins on my current processor, wrecking both it and the motherboard. So I need new ones of each.

I am pretty new to the hardware aspect of computers but have managed to find out this:

The Motherboard is an MD5000 from Medion and is an mATX/ MICRO ATX form factor? The processor is a Intel Pentium 4 2.66 GHz 478 socket.

Basically I need to replace both and have not got a clue where to start. I don't need anything super fancy but found it cheaper to upgrade than source these parts above.

It also needs to support an nVidia Geforce AGP 64Mb Graphics Card which came with the PC. Could be an MX-440 (MSI - 8893)

What would you recommend for me? I assume I will need to upgrade my RAM too to DDR 2 as my current is only DDR?

Apologies for the sketchy information, but would really appreciate help!

Thanks
