Hi all

I am looking to see what you guys think on what upgrade options I would have. currently running the following system.

i7 2600k
Asus P8P67 Pro
CF 6950
16 Gb Mushkin 1333 Ram
BFG 1kw PSU

Not really looking to play games any more. Just Running VM's for testing and Photography tasks

Any input would be great. I have aprox 500 - 600 to spend

Overclocking what you have already got seems the obvious choice. It is still a good CPU.

Add an SSD maybe.
