It really depends on where your heart is at the moment. I've already maxed out my PC hardware, so it is easy to pick up a new BP (just picked up a Bumblebee). But if your hardware needs an upgrade, then thats the tough decision. Just out of curiousity, what hardware are you looking to upgrade? Do you game? Do you bench test? What exactly are you looking to achieve with your next hardware upgrade?

i do game actually, i play World of warcraft lol, the only thing my computer really needs to start working again is a new graphics cad, which im told my uncle will be able to give me a nice 1 for free, the memory and stuff is just extra cuz WoW is really playable on anything, so i figured black friday and xmas is comming up so my decision is, im going to wait till christmas time to upgrade my computer, and get myself a Spider Ball Python from Brian at BHB reptiles =D

well I got both problems solved for you lol I got pastels and some pc parts. I build pcs for fun and as my extra winter time make moeny hobby and th snakes are my other love lol. I play WOW on either 2 of the pcs I got ( one was made from scrape parts lol) I breed my pastel to a normal hoping for a female pastel andgot 2 males ( figures when I wanted a female right ) lol

lol nice, iv'e always wanted to buid my own computer sooo thats gonna be happening sometime eventually lol, but i recently fell in love with snakes and found them kinda addicting hah.

I'm actually using some of my spare parts to do a build (E8400, Corsair H50, Antec 300 case, 1000W PSU, 5770, 2x1Tb HDDs, 4Gb ram and Win 7 with COA sticker) to fund my next reptile related purchase. I know someone who does custom acrylic cPC ases, so I want him to do a custom BP enclosure out of black acrylic (all sides but the front viewing window will be black). Just before getting into reptiles, I dropped a lot of $$ into my rig and regret it! I could have picked up a Clown BP!

Knytemare, I highly recommend getting an ATI 5770 video card. it will suit your needs for gaming without breaking the bank (should be able to find one for about £120).
