Help me choose an upgrade

[SilverSliver]

Im torn between these two

To give some background, I currently have a 6+ year old Mag Innovision 19inch CRT, struggles with anything above 1024x768 at 85.

my HD is a WD Caviar IDE 80gig HD 8meg cache

Thinking of getting...

Iiyama Visionmaster Pro 514 at 638 landing cost


or


2x 36gig WD raptors on a RAID 0 array at around 350-400 or so for a pair.


Whats the biggest bang for my buck, in your opinions.

Considering your system, I would go with the monitor upgrade.

System looks fine, all you need is monitor.
