Well the thing about RAM is that I'm still on WinXP, so I think I read that anything after 3gb won't register, and there's minimal gain if I upgrade to 3gb (I'll lose the ability to dual channel or something like that??)
I might be able to save up a few hundred for a GTX560Ti, but I'm not sure
if it's worth it to just upgrade 1 thing now, or should I just wait until I have a grand saved up to get a new system. Will a good video card still be useful if my cpu and ram is still outdated?
I still intend on carrying over all my external components, like keyboard, mouse, monitors, etc., so I won't have to re-buy that stuff for my next system.

AzNightmare, let me know if you will save up enough to get a system by the end of the year, I build myself a monster pc every year and sell it off the following year. I'd like to think it would be pretty damned cheap. i7, 12gb of ram, radeon 6950, 120gb ssd. Lancool dragon lord case (powder coated red internals).

Thanks, but I'm going to end up building my own... just because building the computer is like 75% of the fun of owning a new computer.
