What should I do?

[shawnol]

I currently have 150$ towards anything on my computer...
I currently wanted to do a full WC custom setup from AC, but i dont think thats in my budget.
I also have a 7800gt i can sell and then buy a 7900GTO, but theres not enough high-powered games that i do right now CSS,BF2 thats it.


Please help, i also already have a lcd monitor,etc.I was looking at the Kandalf LCS Case but its to expensive too.. Other than that i could go all out with a Matrix Orbital, Lighting, and new Stronger case fans and make a blowhole in the top, and a fan control

I wouldn't upgrade the vid just yet, and I wouldn't spend time and $ on fans and case modding unless things were getting a bit toasty. Your bottleneck right now is drive speed, but don't spend the money you have just for the sake of it. If everything is running fine and nothings really nagging you, then just let that $150 grow for a while. If you want a quicker system, you could buy a Raptor and use your current drive for archiving., or get 2 lower end SATA drives and run them in a RAID array. No matter how you look at it, you definately need some SATA drive action no matter what drives you decide on!!

yah ur right. all my current stuff is pretty cool (all below 40C for pwm/chip/cpu)
just got my dvd drive which is a good essential.

my amd 3700 is good enof for me now, id see no big performance boost there i think..

i think ill spend the money on my room stuff and then AM3 setup..
