Hi All,

I need to upgrade my rig, but can't do it all at once, so I thought I might get some advice/suggestions:

my current rig is below in the sig.

I'd like to go to P35 mobo/e6750/8800 GTS/DDR2 800

I can do the video card... OR the rest right now.

thoughts on if the new video card would be better in my current system for the time being, or would the current video card be better in the new system?

I'm very excited about some games coming out (Crysis, Hellgate, etc) so you can use that as a meter to what I would be doing.

Thanks for any suggestions!

(i cross posted in the video card forum as well)
 
Get the video card first. You will be a little bottlenecked by the rest of your system but you will be able to run most, if not everything, on full details with AA and AF without dropping much in FPS.

The X1900 you have now will not have enough power in these new games if you want to run on full details with AA and high resolution (1680x1050 and above)
