Default Recommendations on Upgrade Path

Hi,
I'm thinking about upgrading my P4c800 dlx 3.2 Prescot/ Ati x800xl AGP/2 gig
OCZ DDR 400/ to an Asus P5B Deluxe/Ati x800xl Pci/ 2gig DDr2-- so i can take
advantage of the Intel Core 2 Duo chip and the new PCI Express architecture.
My question is---will I notice a marked improvement in speed for Video
encoding/3D Games/burning data to DVD's over my trusty P$C800 DLX? Thanks.
AJ
