I am in the process of upgrading my sons gameing machine. Current Spec:-
DFI CFX3200DR mobo, 1900XTX x 2 in crossfire, AMD 64 x2 4800 cpu, 2gb Mushkin Redline memory, 2 x 150gb Raptors, Enermax Liberty 620w psu, Antec P182 case (new), and a new Dell 22" TFT (fabulous).

He is wanting to gradually upgrade and wants to use DX10 & VISTA. Our thoughts are to start with the graphics card, and go for a card that can migrate to a new board. Next upgrade would have to be mobo\cpu\memory and thats a lot of dosh in one go!

We are thinking ATI 3870 and possibly two if the psu is up to it. The 3870 X2 would be to long for the Antec, dammit.

Thats a good thougfht as the HDD's are at the bottom on the case, although we have got a 120mm fan on the middle HDD tray.
