Suggestions for PC upgrades

[ern88]

I have a ASUS P5K-e mobo.
Intel E8400 dual core 3.0 ghz
4 gig ram
500 gig HD 10,000 rpm
22 inch Acer monitor
BFG 9800 GTX
Sound blaster X-FI extreme gamer
Running dual boot WIN VISTA Ult 64 bit and Windows 7 Ult RC 64-bit.
Everything is running fine. But like to keep everything up to snuff once and a while. Any suggestions would be great.

Just upgrade your graphic card. Wait till the i5 1156 come out for upgrading anything else.

When is the i5 coming out?

Intel is pretty shaky on the exact date, rumors are from Aug to Sept

+1 for graphic card upgrade...
You can also try overclocking as E8400 overclocks very well and with a good aftermarket CPU cooler, you can run that CPU say 3.4/ 3.6GHz stable 24x7...
Though take care while you overclock if you are doing it for the first time...

What would be a good upgrade to the gfx card I have now. It runs everything that is out there now.
