Christmas is coming and well, soon new games like Project IM are coming and looking completly AMAZING, so I was wondering... What should I upgrade next? My current PC has the following specs:

Motherboard: ECS 755-A2
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.2GHz 1600HT
Memory: Kingston 1024MB DDR400
Video Card: Nvidia GeForce 6800 GT 256 MB GDDR3 AGP
Sound Card: SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS
Hard Drive: Western Digital 300GB 7200RPM
Monitor: Optiquest Q71

Thanks & Regards.
 
Video card would probably benefit you the most. But if you have the desire for multi-tasking buying an x2 3800 is a good step before a new gpu.
 
You have a decent rig now, so I'd save money until M2 and do a total rebuild.
 
no need to upgrade anything but a primary hard drive. get a raptor and use the 300 as storage.

no such thing as x2 for 754 to my knowledge, other than that i say /thread. However, If its a must, sell your mobo, cpu and vid ~> upgrade to 939, go PCI-E and since you didn't mention what PSU you had, I'm gonna assume its cuz your embarassed of what it is, upgrade that as well. :)
 
I was checking some stuff for sale at the sales forum and found a good mobo with x2 3800 and a geforce 6600 128mb pci express x16. Can get that for christmas, sell my current and pay part of it and save some money.
