Hello, I am looking to upgrade my Video Card and Monitor for gaming at some point, and am wondering if I should care about my CPU. It has been running great everything I have thrown at it, I just can't do pixel shader 3 games yet. Any upgrade opinions would be great, but I want to save money for a huge overhaul in the future.
