    Well that's what I would do if I won the lottery, in the meantime I will continue to beg my wife for a new rig.
    no way your wife is boss in the house XP
    I'm never wrong. I once thought I was wrong, turns out, I was mistaken.

    I might upgrade with an SSD drive and leave everything else as current. I hope I can manage with satisfying performance.

    Probably will try to get a more powerfull GFX card if i can.

    No choice.

    Waiting to see what Haswell has to offer. Probably going to hop on that bandwagon with a 600 series GPU.

    "Hard physics" such as ragdolls, vehicles, ballistics, collisions and etc. are processed by the CPU. (Which ArmA 3 uses)

    "Soft physics" such as water, cloth, hair, particle effects with physics, etc. are processed by the GPU because it is too complicated for the CPU to process effectively. You would need a PhysX compatible GPU for these stuff because GPUs are much faster at calculating complex math than CPUs.

    EDIT: I still got an old Q6600 at 2.4 Ghz... Sigh... Hopefully ArmA 3 runs ok. I'm settled with my GTX 560 Ti OC'd though.

    Yap, I'll upgrade too.

    Bought a SSD (Samsung 830 Series - 256 GB) already now because there simply wasn't any more space on my old SSD (60 GB) and my 80 GB HDD.

    But at the time A3 comes out, I'll buy everything else brand new!

    Probably a new GFX card (guess i'll wait for the GK110 GPU), i hope my i7 920@3,5ghz will be enough for a CPU.

    WTF are you doing with a 80GB HDD?

    The only problem getting an SSD is the installation. I have to reinstall everything on my computer and I dont want to. It would take forever to install everything again.
