Upgrade Fever, Cant Think

[Microgoliath]

My last post then I'm going back into lerker mode like i was before this upgrade fever i got. Also not sure if this is the right section to post it, seems like it though.

My current setup:

Athlon ii 620 x4 3.54 Ghz
ATI 5770
4 gig value RAM
Biostar mobo
7200rpm HDD
500w CM PSU

I plan on upgraded over the course of 3 months, what would you start on first? i cannot think of what to buy first since everything i look at i want. I'm a mid-range oke so funds are short (thats why i need 3 months)

My plan was to buy a PSU now, then get the new ATI cards coming out soon (7***) but my friend suggested i just get RAM and then a new mobo + cpu most prob i5 2500k.

So again i ask, what would you start on first?

Thanks.

psu > gpu > cpu+mobo > ram

Your PSU is not big enough to add anything. You will need to bump that first. After that, for gaming, you'll see the most improvement with a new graphics card. It doesn't matter if your system bottlenecks it a little, because you'll be upgrading as time goes on. Your present 5770 is on the weak side. I'd get as much card as I could afford. Tom's has a chart for that. You should move up at least two tiers.
