I currently have:
Asus A8n-e NF4-U
2x512mb ram
3700+ SD cpu
x800xl 256mb
3 hdd's 80gb sata, 160 and 200 gb IDE
550watt antec TP II psu
nec dvd burner
dell 2005fpw

So Im going to upgrade my computer in a month or so and this is what I am thinking

Current Mobo
Current Ram, with an additional 512mb stick, making 3 sticks
x2 3800 (or possibly higher)
x1800xt 256mb version
removing the 2 IDE drives adding another Sata drive and buying exteranal usb enclosures for the IDE drives
Current Psu
Adding another 20" widescreen, and buying a tv card (I currently have my 360 hooked up to my dell so another screen really would do wonders for me.
And to finish it off adding a cheap sound card because mine is starting to crackle now and its annoying


And for a totally new build I was thinking

E6600
Some Flavor of 965 mobo
2x1gb ram
x1900xt
enermax liberty 600w psu
2 320gb seagate sata hdds
prolly another dell 20" maybe a 24"
tv card
 
My main reason for wanting to go with a new intel build is that I dont like the quirks that come with my current setup, its pretty stable but some times it does some funky stuff. I was hoping the new intel stuff would be pretty stable after a month being out.
