No, ive spent enough money!...and having a few problems with my pc currently.

just can't quite figure out if it's memory(all memory tests show no faults) or motherboard related so may end up needing to spend a little more on this one.but will be cheaper than swapping to pci-e and a new motherboard.

No, I'm happy so far this year, my system is going to last me a while I think, maybe next year.

I'm not sure. I want to buy a new pc this year. But I'm not sure if I should. It depends on the new products that come out (or not ofcourse) this year.

I'm not quite sure if I'll have enough money although I wouldn't mind upgrading to one of those Xpress chipsets with a Winchester Athlon 64

Definatly not. I don't plan to move past my 754 socket and 9800 pro until I can snag something dual core..Might..might might might upgrade the 9800 to an x800pro if BF2 isn't too doable on this current card, but that's all I'm going to do..

I'm unsure as to the immediate benefits up to now (other than the fastest GPU cores are now only PCIe at the moment).

Where're all the PCIe soundcards etc?
