I already own a 710x3 4870 1gb 4gig 1066 ddr2 pc. My wifes pc messed up and I gave her my build so I could buy me a new one. But looking at how technology goes and always having to keep up to date I have reached a point where I dont know what to do. I am a gamer a 23yr old gamer. All I do is game on my computer. But is pc gaming all about graphics? I dont want to upgrade again and again just to game. So should I just buy me a xbox360 and a new TV on black friday and save my money until next year and upgrade my curent pc? Do I really need 2 when I already have one and all i wana do is game? What other advantages can I get from pc gaming then just graphics? I know I know graphics will always look better on pc. But with a current computer that I have should I getme another one?

Spend 500 bucks to build your wife a computer and get yours back. Upgrade the CPU if you want and give her the old one.

Well you can share that PC(Cuz all you do is game)...

About the Gfx:
That's your own preference.
Though I have a 9800GT and i can play all games at 12X10(Monitor's native resolution)
but I will be fine if I have to play at 800X600.I upgrade PC in 3 years.

If you care about Gfx then you will have to spend money...
