Im looking to spend about 11k on a pc come year end, but for now i was looking for advice for something to do now! LoL Anways it looks like the theory would be more ram and after that will just have to hold out till the end of the year depending how much i wanna save.

Just wait a while, the newer cards are a bit rubbish... But if you can afford an 8800GTS/GTX well...

That sucks. My gfx does indeed seem to be my bottleneck

AMD X2 5200+ Dual Core @Stock speed
Gigabyte S-series mobo
XFX 8500GT 256MB
2GB Team Elite DDR800 RAM
1 x 250GB SATA 2 Seagate HDD
iSonic 600W PSU

Ya. Let us hope so...

But probably by that time you need an 8800 just to get them to run
