Current Build:
MOBO: ASRock A780GXE/128M AM2/AM2+ Xfire ready
CPU: AMD Phenom X4 9750@ 2.4 Ghz
GPU: Asus Radeon 4870 1GB
RAM: 8 GB DDR2 RAM@ 800Mhz
PSU: 650W Antec PSU
Cooler: Sunbeam CR-CCTF
CASE: Antec900 Case
MONITORS: 1 19inch Hanns.G, 1 17inch Hanns.G
HDD: 1 250Gb WD SATAII
1 750Gb Hitachi SATAII
1 200Gb Maxtor IDE
1 40Gb Maxtor IDE
External: 1 1.5Tb Seagate USB2.0 External HDD
Mouse: Razer DiamondBack
Keyboard: Saitek Eclipse
Speakers: Came with my family's old Emachine, good enough for me! lol.
So my question is, how good is this build? I know its aging, which is annoying since its not that old, only a year--plus I only got the GPU in August! How long until I should upgrade, barring any sudden and unforeseen leaps in technology? I've been doing a lot of research into how I could upgrade, but it seems to me that, until software really catches up, my set up is more than sufficient. Thoughts welcomed!
Oh, and I know that my HDD's are kinda screwed up, lol, but they're from a bunch of old builds. I have the OS on the 250Gb, DL everything on the 750Gb, back everything onto the external, and use the 200Gb and 40Gb for random ***. I am in the middle of reorganizing my filing system, as I had Vista installed on both SATA drives--combined 2 computers--thus I had duplicates of a lot of ***, lol.

1st Duke.
