I am trying to decide whether to upgrade my main PC or wait a while and just buy a new one. My machine isn't bad, it just needs some upgrading to handle the games of today i think. I bought it in late 2005. I have XP but would like to upgrade to Vista and be able to play today's games without worrying about whether my system can meet minimum or recommended requirements. Thoughts? Opinions? What would you recommend? Thanks in advance...
