So i have a new job now, and have a bit of money spare, and i fancy speeding my pc up..

Current spec is:

Some awful, crappy case thats fallen to bits and offers dreadful cooling >_>
E6300 @ 3.2ghz with freezer 7 pro cooling.
8800GTS 512mb @ 770/1950/1050
2gb Crucial Ballistix
250 WD Caviar SE HDD, IDE :(
19" Monitor @ 1280x1024.
gigabyte DS3 965p motherboard.

So, what would you upgrade if you had this spec?
 
I know case would be the best visually, but i want performance over anything tbh, and case wont give me much more of that, as atm my components arent overheating at all.
 
Really? Its done well with clocking my E6300 to 3.22 which its been at now for the best part of a year or something, i forget how long ive had it now. Would it not clock quads as well?

I use Vista32 and XP32, so more memory seems a later option.

Are the next range of GPus actually gunna be worth getting?
 
Ive decided to buy a new monitor, a 24inch one..

I realise this will lower performance when i want higher, but im just so tempted by one ive found!

I hope my GTS512 can keep up lol
