I have £200 pounds to spend on my pc. I mainly use it for gaming and internet only.
Question is what component would give the most improvement for the price to my current set-up?

Akasa Eclipse
Asus Maximus Formula
G.Skill 4GB DDR2 PK PC2-8500C5 (2x2GB)
Intel Core 2 Duo E2200 oc’d to 3.2
Xigmatek HDT-S1283
Corsair HX520
Sapphire Ati HD 4850 512mb
Samsung SpinPoint HD501LJ 500GB SATAII Hard Drive 16MB Cache
19” Samsung 920WM Widescreen Monitor
Vista 64bit
NEC DVD SATA drive

I’m thinking of either a new 22” Monitor, another HD 4850 or a new processor.
Any ideas?
 
Cheers for the responses guys.

I think you're right as regards the monitor. I can afford a decent 22", or maybe even stretch to the OCUK 24"

I'll probally look to getting another HD4850 in a few months or so.
As regards PSU I've been told that my Corsair HD520 should be adequate to run 2 4850's in xfire...............fingers crossed :)
 
Yeah, forgot i'll also have the cash from the bay to put in as well.......
How much do you think I could realistically get for my monitor and (retail) cpu?
