Hey guys,

I built a new computer a little under 2 years ago. I provided links to all the parts I bought so that I can get as detailed as possible. I want to see whether you guys think I should drop a AMD X2 in there (will my mobo support it btw?), or whether the gain is really worth it to build a new C2D system. What do I do on the PC? I game sparingly, and I mostly surf the internet with tons of windows, burn DVD's, download torrents, have ofice programs running, chat, iTunes, etc.

Current PC specs:
 
Depends on your available funds, droping a dual-core Opteron or a X2 in that rig would help out alot, but not as much as a C2D is going to. I would think you would be find with a faster dual-core tho.
