    A new case (Super tower, /w everything I could possibly want in a case built in)
    Or a 2nd HDD to do a Raid-0 Config and an extra gig of ram?(Yes, I know it's a good way to fubar my data, but I back everything up on an external that I need, and I'm only going for a high-bandwidth for gaming)

    I'm not going to comment on the 2nd drive, but more memory is ALWAYS a good idea (unless you already have 3gb). Anything that the "super" case has built-in can probably be added to the case you currently have, and if not, so what. A "super case" isn't going to increase your gaming performance regardless of how freekin' super it may be....

    True....but it's just so sexy though!
    Anyhow, I found the ram on sale (2x1 GB Kingston) for $30.00, and got my HDD. The first dimms I bought were bad (IRQ_NOT_LESS_THAN_EQUAL), and the second set doesn't seem to be playing nice....had a couple crashes while installing vista again. Oh well.
