I have a 24" Dell monitor with DVI input & mouse/kb. I will get a joystick if PS2 supports it. Otherwise, all new parts. I need it all.

"The best". Ok, good enough that it does not slow me down, but things don't look like giant boxes.

I have Windows 64-bit home edition (retail box). I'm open to upgrading.

I don't know enough to answer that. It just needs to have very fast graphics. I don't need HDD space or Blu-ray burner or any fluff.

Sure, provided it's reasonably simple and low-medium risk.
