    geforce fx 5200 --> 6800 w/ 512 gddr2 (but would a 6800gs be worth the extra 50 bucks, im stuck with agp :()

    Yea I've gotta start shortly, btw jobs at the moment, but want 2x1Gb RAM and Vid Card for PC1, not sure which yet still researching, keen to know how you get on.

    PC3 is looking promosing but still in R&D stages, which sort of coffee, probe coating surface (copper, alloy, etc) but starting to show good bang for buzz, lol.

    Will have a look at ya specs soon, about to do Vid Drivers (try to get this crap a little better) and benchmarking then some RAM timing tweaks. But PSU may be a bit under power for new vid card etc, tomshardware does some good reviews (shootouts).
