Ok here It is what I have at the moment.

Asus P5B motherboard
OCZ 1 gig DDR2
7900GTX
Pentium D 2.8
Hiper 580W PSU
Sonata II Case

Ok my memory is struggling for any game these days so I have ordered 2gig of ram which is comin next week, but should I:

a) Upgrade my CPU now to a quad core and will the FSB's support my motherboard?

b) Do I wait for the penryn cpus that come out in January?

c) Do i just go for a complete overhaul sometime early next year?

d) Upgrade to a cheapish core2duo that supports my motherboard?

Cheers fellas
 
I was hoping i could buy things bit by bit if i could, otherwise id have to start saving pretty much budget i dont know about £400 on a upgrade?

Yeah i'd like to play games but im not to fussed about the high resolutions 1024 will do me with its high settings.

Will this run on my motherboard? a lot more FSB.. also how will the Q6600 run on this motherboard these are the 2 cpus im looking at?

Also how important is the L2 Cache, that seems to be swinging the price a lot with these cpu's if its not to important maybe the E4300 will do, sorry for asking so many questions lol im just a tad confused.

Yep i bought that GeLL memory great price, erm do i really need a new power supply though? Ive heard the modular ones die after a year but this one is not a modular one and its been doing fine, coming up to a year now
