Been out of the loop in regards to the latest hardware and I would appreciate any advice of what to upgrade. The specs can be found in my sig.

Probably the graphics card and ram, not looking to spend too much money but at the same time not get anything that won’t last for awhile. I am also looking at getting 2 GB of ram.

I mainly use the computer to play games, but not the latest titles.

Thanks

*edit* Removed the budget

ok... Yes 2Gb of RAM is worth it... but you wouldnt get much change out of £200

It's never been that cheap before, what a bargain. When these first came out, they sold for £234 inc VAT.

Cool, did a quick Google search for benchmarks and didn’t find much, would there be much improvement over the 6600GT that I currently have that warrants spending ~£160 on it?

Also in the past I heard that the DFI boards are picky on the ram, is this true and if it is what brands are worth avoiding or worth using.

Thanks for all the replies so far.
