Would hardly call your PC outdated I've still got a 4 year old system that can play most games, reasonably and encode a fair ammount of material using it.

Yep all good, may want to upgrade the vid card to a DX10 card at some point, but other then that it should last a while......

Maybe drop a quad core in later on to, but main thing i see that might warrant an upgrade is the vid card..

yeh i agree with the gfx card should i wait a while for dx10 cards?theres meant to be a good card out november this year?

Depends what you want to spend, what you do with your computer specifically. If you don't notice anything wrong/slow with it at the moment, why bother thinking about upgrading?
