Hello All!
New to Tom's Hardware!
so here are the specs :

Motherboard : Asus P6T Se
Processor : Intel i7 core 920 @ 2.67 socket lga 1366
Memory : mixed 16 gb (would've upgraded to a full 24 gb, but as a friend said , that's overkill)
Graphics: NVIDIA Geforce Gtx 285 (Upgrading to a MSI GeForce GTX 660)
Storage; Total 1.8 Terabytes , with crucial ssd as my boot disk .

What would be recommended to upgrade? The CPU? The GPU? (which will probably be done tomorrow ;-) ) I'm sticking with the ASUS P6T SE because I hear it's more or less a pretty good mobo, PLUS if I got a new mobo, I wouldn't know much about the different capabilities for each device.
 


A great board. I'd suggest upgrading the cpu and the gpu in one go, possibly to top end i5/gtx 770 or top lower end i5/gtx660
