I have a Dell XPS 8300, i7 2.4 ghz, 8 gigs of DDR3 ram, not sure what the make is or speed, guessing its a pretty average low budget ram as it came from dell. I have thrown in a OCZ 850 watt PSU thats been running perfectly for 6 months or so now, and went through a few video cards till I found the 560 ti worked best for my needs.
Now my question is will getting faster ram, or a faster hard drive improve anything gaming wise? Use it for Secondlife which is probably the most graphic intensive thing I do with it, everything else is light little games. I cant do much to upgrade the computer itself save for the ram and hard drive, the motherboard... well not planning on gutting a dell case to try and squeeze a new mother board in.
