Im stuck at 2.5ghz on my e6300 want to get to atleast 3ghz.
What is most important for me to upgrade and what you recommend.

Current System:
Intel E6300 - Processor
BioStar P965 - MotherBoard
BFG 7600GT - Graphics
Crosair 1G DDR2 667 - Ram
X-Finity 500W - PS

Upgrades looking at:
Patriot 2gig 800mhz - probably getting 2 for 4 gig
8800GTS 640mb (price bugs me waiting on that one to drop a lil)
Ultra 120 Cooler
Antec 900 for its cooling

should i be concernd about my powersupply? I am running a good amount off it, i have an aero cool gatewatch and 3 harddrives. Looking to get one 500gig harddrive though. i think its my Ram thats holding me back but would ike to hear what you think.

Whats your opinions?

Id say upgrade the ram, and the extra cost of 640mb 8800GTS compared to the 320mb version is not really worth it in terms of performance IMO.

I'd certainly get a better quality power supply. Stay away from Ultra stuff if you want to OC.

i wanted the 640mb cause i do a bit of multi-tasking and video editing thought it would make a difference at that point but yeah im thinking save some cash and getting a high end powersupply.
