Setting my new gaming rig ! Intel OR AMD ?

It has been a year since last posting .. huhu
I need help to build rig with budget of max around RM 4k . I'm really a noob on latest hardwares , last time i did it was abt 4yr+ ago, was using the same old P4 system until the mobo caput .. my main usage mostly surfing , gaming and photo editing ..

My 4 yr old system was like :
Intel pentium 4 2.8E GHZ
ASUS P4P800 Deluxe I865PE
AGP 8X HIS HD 3850 ICEQ III TURBO AGP
Kingston 2GB PC400MHZ DDR RAM
Samsung 52x24x52x CD writer
ASUS DVD-ROM 16x DVD-RW
LG 18xATP3
Altec Lansing
HEC Casing Compucase 6AU6
Raptoxx 550Watt 20+4 PIN True Power PSU
PHILIPS 170C LCD

i still prefer Radeon and planning to try AMD base , window Vista
and if posibble to maintain some part that still compatible (except mobo / intel and the DDR ram la .. )
