I'm in one of those horrible want-to-spend moods because I got a decent bonus but I can't decide what the hell to buy from my computer. Give me ideas please, or tell me I'm a dumbass and that I can't really get anything else. Here's what I have right now. CPU: 2500k RAM: 8GB of whatever's...

Anyone?

I don't get why so many people are springing for the 2600k, there can't be that many video editors out there.
