Hi, i was wondering what you guys can recommend for an upgrade. Ill most likely need a new video card. I mainly play pc games (world of warcraft) and use my comp for college. My comp specs are listed in my sig. thanks in advance 🙂
 
sell off your 6800GT to differentiate the price for a nice kick @$$ vid card. The rest of the rig looks fine...unless somethin' is wrong on your noggin 😉
 
You look good to go as it is. That's pretty top of the line unless you really hav to tell everyone you have an FX60 or 4 gigs of Ram that isn't used. If you must, the video card is something that could be changed to a 7900gt or better (x1900+).
 
Thanks for all the replies guys, ill probably just pick up a video card then 😉. Is there a big difference between the Creative Audigy 2 and the new XFi?
 
Yes, a newer vid card would be nice, but it really depends on how much gaming you do and what kind of games you play.

There are differences between the X-Fi and the Audigy 2 ZS, price is one, but they're both good sound cards.
 
Your a college student and that's your rig? 0.0

The GPU is the only thing I see "wrong" with it..although, I'd just pick up a 7900GT for ~$300. From the looks of it you'll be wanting to upgrade again when DX10 comes out, and in the meantime the GT will last you fine.
