I would say no, the only place you'll see any improvement is in 3dmark06, and its a lot of money, save it and upgrade in a couple of years time.

What are you saying, you'd want to replace your whole system with OcUK's 2.6K system? Money growing on trees? :p

70 frames per second isn't low, are you sure your graphics cards are actually playing up? You certain it's not the at the games end and not your system? Try testing with other components as opposed to purchasing a completely new package PC, at this rate you'd never really know what was the actual problem. Try the SteamPowered forums for some expert advice, I'm on a 7800GT myself and have experienced some FPS jumps. Also, I wouldn't base 3DMark scores going down as a hint that one of your components have gone "bad".

Again, just noticed the topic title, don't go for it if you're system is actually fine.

3d mark hasnt gone low, they are fine, its just most games have gone to lol :) , i was more in mind of the 3k system :p . but ill give this some more time, perhaps its just CS: source and a few others, wierd, never had any probs before, it was all constant.
