What should I buy?

[tbonesin2000]

Hey everyone, I'm in the process of shopping for upgrades for my baby. So far I know that I'm gonna be going with a 2500+, but the other major thing I'm looking for is a new video card. Any suggestions of what to or what not to buy? The rest of the specs of my current machine should be down there\/

wait for new gen cards.

yea, go for the 2500+ definately, but a ti4600 is a VERY decent card, have you overclocked it any? That can make it more useful while you wait for new cards to be released.

I had it oced at one point, but it was pretty unstable. That could have had something to do with the fact that the fan wasn't spinning due to dust though
I'm going to be moving to water cooling too, so i should be able to oc both the cpu and the gpu without too many problems. How soon are the new cards coming out?

April or May. The Ti 4600 is a decent card still. We are looking at 9600 Pro performance without AA/AF.

Id keep the Ti, until games are a problem, then look at upgrading.
