If I were to spend a little extra and get a 4870, would it be worth it, and would it be bottlenecked by the processor?

I'd also throw in another 2GB stick of RAM.

500 isn't bad at all for this build.

[QUOTE=j-richardson;18460152]Try this [img]http://i48.tinypic.com/jzz2g8.png[/img] £507.91 inc vat[/QUOTE] I would try and get 4 gigs of ram.
[QUOTE=j-richardson;18460152]Try this [img]http://i48.tinypic.com/jzz2g8.png[/img] £507.91 inc vat[/QUOTE] Do I really need a 500w psu? Earlier in the thread people said I could get away with a lot less than that. I could use the money saved to get some more RAM.
Anyone?
Stick with the PSU dude
