Only if you need to watch Hi-Def content via a HD or BR player.

And by the time those come down to $50, it'll be time to build an entirely new rig anyways...in like 2 years.

Yeah, something tells me it's going to be a long, long time before software comes standard on BR... seeing as it's not even a standard for it to come on DVD yet.

😕 you can get hd and blu-ray dvds at blockbuster and software hd dvd players from quite a few different sources
 
Right now seems like the worst time to be upgrading anything. We have dx10 and vista to deal with as well as needing new hardware to support it. All the first gen hardware and software are coming out. (which is most likely over-priced and buggy) (remember the gforce fx series cards which where suppose to fully support pixel shader 2.0?)

I think it would be best to wait until the second quarter of next year so that the dust can settle. Better motherboards will be available and drivers will be fine-tuned. And when is intel going to go 64-bit by the way? This intel/amd split between 32 and 64-bit seems like it's going to make it difficult for software/game developers to have to write software to support both. It seems like everything should just go 64 now. Of course by the time I get my newest (probably 32 bit) machine built next year it will all happen. :evil:
