Nice little setup there, need some watercooling for that overclocking, mind you, i have the water bug, cant stop watercooling things now. XD

Anyways, I wouldnt bother upgrading as of yet, that card will be fine for most applications, if you do upgrade, go for a larger monitor too, Take advantage of the power.

Thankyou :)

I'm an overclocking junkie! I cant stop now! :p

But yeah, the comment about the monitor has been taken in, i've had my eyes on the 226BW for a couple of months now. Its only a matter of time :)

EDIT - On my computer, This appears as post #1. Forum problem? :(

Plans

- Format and Install Windows XP 64bit, utilize the whole 4GB of memory, and overclock to around 900MHz.

- With overclocked Memory, GPU and CPU, I aim for 14,000.

- Update to a newer series graphics card (4850, 4850 GDDR5, 4870, 4870X2)
