Nothing atm, I can play BF2 and anything else quite well right now and this rig isn't new at all.
Maybe I'll go with a 939+dual core+some new vid card at the end of the year.

New case, my current Lanfire just isn't enough. Gonna get a Coolermaster stacker, nice new PSU, throw it all in there.

2001FP, 6600GT or motherboard/CPU/RAM.
Can't decide which, and both the TFT and motherboard etc will require a bit of saving.

I just upgraded everything but the vid card in February, I'm good for awhile. Until I find a game that I can't run on my 9700 pro.

looking for a raid 5 card at the moment.
new keyboard will be needed shortly.

after that, maybe a 2405 or apple 30" if prices keep sliding and I have the money. another possibility is the gigabyte iram if it measures up to expectations.

next "new" computer will probably be either single or dual quad cores, in 14-18 months.

next big PC purchase will probably be a new mobo and CPU, though it may be a while as I have already purchased a GF 6800 and a big LCD this year, and my morgage cuts into my Hardware fund.

I just got an A8N-E, 2GB RAM (2x1GB PC3200), Gigabyte 6600 PCI-E gfx, some other stuff, and have an Athlon X2 in the FedEx right now. That will be my last big purchase for quite some time. :eek:
