Working with the system listed in the specs below in the sig - I'm not sure if I should bother upgrading within this framework or if I should move on to a board that supports the new Intel core architecture + DDR3 ... and perhaps more importantly, SLI of any variety.
I know DDR2 is super cheap now, so I'll probably throw another 2 gigs of RAM in even if I end up parting with this setup in the next couple months. I could also ditch the 8800GTS for 2x something ATI and use crossfire which is supported by this board - though I haven't been super impressed with ATi's offerings in the past couple years. I'm also not sure if a processor upgrade would be warranted.
Any opinions? Suggestions for upgrades or new platform?
