I am curious to any upgrade ideas to this pc. Government $1200 check came and I would like to use a bit of it.

Current System Specs

--AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+

--Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4

--Nirvana NV120 Premium HSF

--Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Paste

--4GB Corsair XMS2 4x1GB 800Mhrz

--Chieftec Dragon Mid Tower

--Corsiar HX620watt

--Samsung DVD-RW Drvie

--Samsung DVD-RW Drive w/lightscribe

--Seagate 16mb 250gb 3.0 SATA

--Maxtor 8mb 250gb 1.5 SATA

--Soundblaster Audigy Platinum

--eVGA 8800GTS (G92) 512mb

a few other things that aren't relevant (dual booting XP Sp2 and Vista Ultimate)(4 80mm Case Fans w/fan controller)

I am just curious if anyone has any ideas

I would think another 8800GTS would be a good idea. If anyone has other ideas please let them out. I love upgrading.

A new case (Cooler Master RC-690 - $100 shipped)
A new harddrive (WD6400AAKS - $110)

8800GTS SLI on this PSU might not be good idea.

Aside from that (unless you want to upgrade to an Intel) you're good.
