^Confused^...  More detail?

 

Other than that, usually this kind of post would go in "New Builds and Planning": https://linustechtips.com/main/forum/18-new-builds-and-planning/

 

And finally, what will you use the system for?

If your machine is of the '98 era, the power supply will likely have a 20-pin ATX power connector, while modern motherboards expect a 20+4pin ATX connector.

 

With a budget of 1000CAD, I'd just build a completely new machine. Aside from compatibility, at that age, the components from the older machine might begin to fail, and could potentially damage other parts when they do.

 

Maybe something long these lines:
