My Current Build... AMD 955 x4 @ 3.9ghz GTX 460 1gb Cyclone WD Green 500gb :( 4gb 1333mhz ram MSI nf750-g55 Mobo. Next Year, I plan on upgrading to this: A new Bulldozer CPU ($250 maybe) AMD 6990 Revodrive SSD 4 more gbs of ram, OC it to 1600mhz. Then sell my 460 and 955 (-$300) Upgrade in total will probably come to about 500 bucks. What do you think ? Sounds good, or build a new PC? (Reason I'm doing this is because I need more horsepower for a higher resolution) . Don't say things like: "Oh your wasting your money, a 460 is enough". Yea a 460 is enough for 1680x1050, marginally, but It's not for 2560x1440, or 5760x1080. And I can't play with 40 fps, I can't do it, my eyes start to hurt, after a while, you might not be able to see a difference between 30 and 60 but I sure as hell can.
You don't need to toss the 460, you can just get another. You also don't need more RAM.
