I got a new computer. someone's old custom build. it's phenom 2 x6 2.7Ghz 8gb ram and an nvidia 8600gt. my question is should I upgrade at all. I do some light gaming. second life, loadout, might grab an rpg or two but I do most of that on my Xbox. and a buddy keeps taking up dead space

^ you can upgrade the GPU after upgrade the PSU first

buy XFX 550 or Corsair CX600M
then buy Radeon 260X or 270X

those items will cost you $170 - 270

but, remember if you are satisfied with current performance, you dont need any upgrade :) good luck
