[Jeff_s510]

so im thinking its upgrade time for me now.....i just dont know what to get lol! i am on about a $300 budget (Cnd $$$ of course) so any ideas on what to get? current system specs!
i5 2500K @4.3
Gigabyte Z68X UD3
16gb kingston hyper X 1600
MSI Gtx 560 ti twin frozer 2
OCZ Revodrive 3 (240 gb)
1.5tb WD Black
Corsair AX760i
Corsair 550D (2 120mm Corsair AF fans in front, 1 140mm in back)

Already love my keyboard mouse and monitor, and want to make sure the rig stays quiet.

Gimme some ideas guys on what to bump up next! keep price in the $300 or less mark

(Edit) i do play games, BF3, Crysis 2, ME3, SC2, WoW, some other online games with friends

What cooling are you using just now? Also how are you finding your current in game performance?

Only see two components worth really upgrading, to a better GPU as the 560ti is getting on a bit and perhaps switching to a newer SSD at a push if you really want. Other than that there isn't a hell of a lot wrong with what you have in my opinion.

for cooling im using a CM Hyper 212+ with a corsair 120mm SP fan on it, keeps it well under 70 on the hottest days in games, the Revodrive 3 is a duel 120 ssd in raid 0 giving me speeds still above what i would get with a single ssd now so i think i still like it a lot.....ive been thinking the GPU also, its fine most of the time, however from time to time my fps does dip into the 15 range when shit gets real....

I'd say upgrade your GPU to something more... Current gen. A 7870 Tahiti LE or a GTX 760 would be good and you'd see a noticable difference in gaming.

You also also upgrade your cooling if you like, maybe something like an H80i or Noctua NH-D14 (not sure if that fits in the 550D) however that would not give your PC any sort of performance boost.

I would suggest a new gpu as well, the system you have is not bad at all.
