So I have an extra $60 to spend! Where is the best place to invest the money. I am thinking about moving up to the 6600GT, but need advice on which model. Or is it worth the money to bump up to the X800? Also was thinking about upgrading the mobo to the Asus A8V which would add on an extra $30 and put me in the socket 939 category. Do these sound like the right changes, or should I put the money towards a better processor, or case, or something different? Again, thanks. I am excited to get my parts ordered and begin building!
