I have an ASUS P5B motherboard with a C2D E4500 CPU, 2G gskill low latency RAM, 7600GT video card running on a 450w PSU.
Thinking about upgrading my OS to 64bit and buying more RAM as well as upgrading my video card to a ATI 4870.
1. Will this grant me acceptable improvements or should I look at upgrading my CPU as well (E7200 C2D, if I can find one that is)?
2. Will I get by with my current PSU or will the ATI's load be too high to run off my current one?
