My hard drive died a few days ago so I just replaced it with a hybrid hard drive and my performance is already much better and my pc is definitely not as slow as a slug anymore. What else would you recommend that I upgrade in my system? I got it about 5 years ago, but I haven't stayed up-to-date on good hardware like I used to. I'm sure I could probably use a new graphics card at least. Is there any new technology coming out that I should wait for before upgrading my pc? I use my rig mainly for gaming and some visual studio/dream weaver and minor photoshop stuff.

1 Terabyte Hybrid HD (just bought, no i don't want a ssd)
700 Watt PSU (no name brand)
