Why do you want things you basically already have? What is wrong with a 22" monitor, one HD4870 or the 5.1 system you already have?

The speakers, nigga.

None, be a little more creative if it's other folks' cash. You've already got a 22", a 4870, and a 5.1 system. No real need for anything in the OP.

E8400, P5Q-PRO, 1GB HD4870, 750GB Samsung, OCZ Vendetta 2, OCZ Reaper 1066Mhz 4GB, P182, Antec 650w, X-Fi Titanium

Another option is getting a new cymbal(s) for my drum kit (Which I have already sunk $9000 into)

more HD space is really the only thing I can think of. and a better HSF if you so desire.

aight then, go for another 4870, since you already have a 1680x1050 res (amirite about ur res), unless if you REALLY need that, 1920x1200 res. Then you're stressing your gfx card pretty good with that res. Depending on what games you play tho.

But ya 4870 in crossfire and you can finally turn max out AA or other settings and still have the same fps or more.

That's how I would roll.

or, lol

get the monitor and tell your parents i need another gfx to support my two monitors. You never know

DOIT!

and do not waste ur moneyz on sum speakers!

Whatever you do, don't get those speakers. They're shit. Get a real amp and a real pair of speakers instead.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
