PC Upgrade

[Casdawer]

Afternoon everyone,

My current PC spec is -

XFX ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2
AMD Phenom II X4 Quad Core 955 Black Edition
MSI 790GX-G65 AMD 790GX
Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium
Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 10666C9 1333MHz TwinX Dual Channel

What would be the best place to start upgrading this machine? Or do you think that current spec is all right?

I'm tempted to upgrade to W7 and see if that improves performance but not sure if it will make much difference.

Also, does having a dedicated sound card make much difference? (I use headphones).

Thanks.

Right, Windows 7 it is then

Will have to wait for my next pay day though

I have the Creative Fatality headphones, so should i put a sound card in my basket as well?

Thanks.
