i'm thinking of the best way to upgrade in the new year for vista and DX10 when it arrives 
atm i have
AMD X2 3800
2Gb Twinx
Asus A8NSLI premium
7800 GTX
2 x 74Gb raptors in RAID 0
2 x 120GB seagates in RAID 0
Tagan 530 Modular PSU
X-Fi Fatal1ty
thinking of....
C2D E6600
2Gb 6400 DDR2
motherboard simliar spec to the A8N but which one ? Dual RAID a must
see what DX10 cards come out keep the 7800 GTX for the time being
2 x 74Gb Raptors keep or sell and get the 150 16Mb version ? any quicker ? or does dropping the raid to a 150 make it slower
2 x 120Gb Seagates bin these and get a few 250Gb 16Mb drives and RAID them
keep the Tagan till i know what GPU i'll have
keep the X-Fi Fatal1ty
a nice Antec 900 to house it all
wont really be overclocking it as its a works PC
that'll keep you all busy
any thoughts ?
many thanks
