Currently using

2500-Mobile @ 2.5ghz
1 gig Corsair Value Select PC3200 Ram
430W Antec True power (first revision)
6800GT AGP
WD 60gig and 120 gig ata drives

Resisting urge to get
3500 Venice
7800GT + Evga mobo combo

How much of an upgrade will this be? Will I need a better PSU and if so what should I get (something not too expencive)? I might spring for a 7800GTX + SLI mobo if anyone can recommend a good deal. Really open to some advice or for someone to talk some sense into me.
 
I would personally wait a little longer to upgrade. There really isn't anything wrong with your current setup. What are you unsatisfied with?
 
Well the 7800 GT deal is pretty sweet, but do you think your current system will last until Nvidia graces us with an even stronger number-crunching powerhouse?
 
I personally would wait, but I usually upgrade every 2 years (little less than a month and I am going 64-bit con dos 7800's :D ).
 
I might be able to get a 3800+ venice for $275. All these deals I keep seeing lately make it really hard not to upgrade. But then I'd have to get a new SLI PSU, memory possibly, sell my old stuff ect. I dunno!!!
