You should notice a difference in both the cpu and the memory, but nothing "earth-shakingly" so. The CPU is almost 2 times as efficient, while the memory, depending upon the operation, might be quite a bit faster. You might also notice a differnce in your hard drive throughput, if the motherboard has a newer SATA interface than what you had. What video card do you have now, and is he including one in his parts?

One big thing to remember is that you will have to re-install Windows, if that's your OS, since it has separate instructions for AMD and Intel CPUs. If you have Linux, depending upon the flavor and how old it is, you might not have to do a re-install of it...
