And the money you saved going that way will be spent on a decent graphics card, likely $200 minimum. I'd say you want at least a 5770 if ATI is the way you want to go. You also said you wanted 8 gigs of RAM, but the system you described only has 4. How much is that other 4 going to cost? Also you'll have to make sure that the new 4 is a proper match for the old. On the other hand, people who know more than I do said 4 is plenty, so you're probably fine there.

I pointed out the IBuyPower because that's the way I'm planning to go, once I finally get tired of buying guitars and amplifiers.
