    the GTS 250 gpu is the weakest component. an i7 930 with good cooling can do 3.8ghz + making them extremely badass in the price performance arena

    so yea besides some overclocking to make that i7 worth its price and a new gpu so you can actually push games at 1920x1200 theres not a whole lot to do.

    Everything is good and can easily run games at max expect that 250. It's crap.

    I'd overclock that i7 just for the sake of it. Should give a reasonable boost too.
