Overclock the 3800 if you haven't already.
The 4600 won't overclock much past what the 3800 will do (unless you've got a poor clocker). The saved cash can go towards a beefier GFX card, or saved.

how come your wanting to upgrade? no offense but i know a 17" monitor generally does 1280x1024 so even a athlon 64 3200 and x800/6800 would be able to run max for all details in almost all games. so your rig must be running stuff pretty decent at the minute i'd have thought?
