    Hi

    I have a hankering to upgrade my PC although its not that old. Criticism welcome ... (I mainly use it for picasa/winamp and web browsing with the odd game...)

    Currently i have

    Core2duo 6300 @1.83
    Asus K8VSE
    2GB ram
    160GB main drive + 250GB media drive (both about twothirds full)
    8800GTS

    My upgrade plan is
    Get a 250gb main drive and reinstall vista home premium
    get 4gb ram
    get a quad core 6600 (95w version) (maybe i dont really need this!)
    leave the graphics alone as the card seems decent enough, crysis is a bit sluggish but i reckon i'd need to spend a fair whack to get an improvement
    overclockers seem to be doing a good deal on all this

    any other suggestions?
