Is a new rig really what I need?

Mate, sell your socket 939 while it's fetching good money, you will not regret it, my old system was very similar to yours.

I had:

Athlon 64 X2 4600 @ 2.6Ghz
Asus A8N-SLI Premium
2GB OCZ Gold DDR3200
256MB 7800GT PCIe

Sold for total: £210


Upgraded too:

Intel Q9450 2.66Ghz @ 3.40Ghz
Asus Maximus Formula X38
4GB OCZ PC2-8000 Platinum
768MB 8800GTX OC

Bought for total: £310


Don't bother waiting to upgrade because the truth is whenever you upgrade something better will always be round the corner. I picked up most my new parts second hand and I would suggest you do the same, because some good bargains can be had.

Good Idea
