£100 upgrade

Birthday on sunday and my parents want to get me some computer bits. I did and still want the corsair carbide 500r, but i feel the 100 can be better used. My rig is in my sig.

The only thing i can think of is getting 16gb ram (60ish) and a game or 2. Only problem is, ny gpu is a hd4830, ideally i want to get a gtx 560ti and sli it in a few months, but with the new series just around the corner, it would be a waste if the prices fell.

Any ideas?

Well I'd personally get the case and wait for the new series, since you want a 560ti and they're 160+

So thats basically saying the current gen cards are adequate enough to play all games (within reason)?
Maybe the 560ti (even though I want AMD) would be good enough for now and sli in the future....Well christmas is close

I think I am going to go for the case, I dont really have anything "stand out". I just bought a RAT 7 and sidewinder x4, so best start by getting a nice house and fill it with goodies next month
