I know they are coming out towards nextyear or end of this year, but I think i am going to delve in. I love Intel, but i loved AMD and i think that may be the perfect time to give AMD a new build.

It's going to be a bit before I upgrade again... My system currently is an i7, 6 gb ram, 295 gtx video. I might upgrade the video card to a dx11 card within a year, and might slap a couple SSD's in for grins but I don't have any other plans for a while.
might even throw another 6gb of ram in

I would love to upgrade as well, but since i'm in college, it's going to have to wait until i get a decent job . My specs are : Intel Core 2 Due E6850 2GB DDR3 Ram ASRock G43Twins-FullHD GeForce GTS 250 1024MB Sound Blaster X-FI Fatality Tournament Edition or something. I really enjoy my computer, it could use more RAM, but it's not really hindering any of my games so i'm not too worried about it.

Sounds really good but..I'll probably wait. I got a new Gaming Computer for Christmas. Santa was very nice to me.

yeah.. probably I posted it on the other thread.
I did end up ordering 12 gigs of ram (cas latency on my current ram is slow and rare now)...
I am still looking into new video cards, but honestly I don't think cpu is much of an issue unless you are doing video encoding or other multi-tasking heavy cpu jobs.
most games just don't need it.
