Upgrading advise!!!

[Project X]

I want to upgrade now in dont know how to do this....
Lets say my budget is R5000
Now i want to get swap my Q6600(B3) for Q9300 but not sure if its worth it help please.
2) I want to Swop my 8800gts 32mb for 9800gtx,to expensive i know, so is settling for 8800gt ok?
What mobo +- R1500 can i get? must be good for overclocking.
Oh not to forget what wold be the best ram to get -+R500 for 2GB...

Best is to try sell in classifieds and use cash to purchase new, dunno who would want to swap?
I got an Asus P5K, R1299

works real nice, Overclocks pretty well for its price range,
got OCZ plat 2x1GB 800mhz R599

good latency ram for the price
Happy flogging/hunting

Oh, and I also got 8800gt 512, works sweet. Its about the best bang for buck. Unless you really want a 9800gtx??

Dunno if about 7% is worth the moola and effort?? Up to you...

i would not swop the q6600 for the q9300

i did it and its pointless

sure the q9300 runs cooler but its a bad overclocker

also the 9800gtx is not that much better than 8800gt

Yup, just keep the dosh and save for when the PC starts to get a little old. otherwise you will spend all that money now and get about 10% of a performance increase
