PC Upgrades - Blu-ray Forum

New PC or just carry on upgrading?
So I got my PC I think about 4 years ago and during those 4 years I have got; (In order of purchase)
A 250GB HDD
A new graphics card
New RAM to 2GB
A DVD Rom Drive (A friend of mine had a spare)
A SATA Card
A a BD Rewriter
A HD Graphics Card
And a 7.1 Sound Card

So after all this I was left thinking whether or not I should carry on upgrading my PC or should I just buy a new one?

What are your primary uses?

It's hard to judge. You could try upgrading the motherboard and CPU. That usually bumps up performance significantly.
