I would like to upgrade my system, in multiple ways, but am just getting into the hobby. I purchased this prebuilt a couple years ago and it's time I get serious. I'm looking for advice on what to upgrade first and/or what parts would be compatible if I should keep some of the existing components. Or, if most of my system should just be replaced? I mostly play FPS games and would like to have something that can be OC'd at some point.
Definitely getting a new case, I'm thinking the Cooler Master 922, other' suggestions would be great...
