Default Just Upgraded my pc completely....finally lol

My old computer system consisted of:

Athlon XP3200+
1.5GB DDR
Creative Audigy Gamer
Intergrated video card
17 Inch CRT



NEW SYSTEM:

Athlon 64 X2 3800+ (Overclocked to a 4400+)
1.5GB DDR
Creative Audigy 2
Radeon X850XT (Overclocked alot too)
19 Inch Widescreen LCD (amazing)



The widescreen l d is amazing, so much more space to work with vegas, so much more crisper and everything lol. All I plan on upgrading in the near future is a 3rd harddrive and another GB of RAM

my plan from the beginning of the summer was wait for this huge price cut and i did and it worked nice.

What sucks is, 5 days after i bought the x2 3800+, it drops like 20 dollars. Plus 3 days after i boyuht the 19 inch widescreen, it also drops 20 bucks.. FUCK NEWEGG lloll. But i got lucky with the combo special for the mobo, it knocked the exact vid card i wanted down 50 bucks from 150 to 100

Congrats on new system. It sure looks good.
I'm looking at the 3800+ X2 for an upgrade, too.

I was wondering how much of a increase you see between the two setups.
I have an AMD 4000 and looking to upgrade to a dual core.
