My 'old' Q6600, 8GB Ram and Radeon 4890 are ticking along nicely. I did consider upgrading to the i7, but then heard that early-mid 2011 a new chipset will come along.
I think I can cope with my system as it stands at the moment. Even with enhanced versions of IL2 it runs smooth enough to be satisfying.
When BoB comes out, it'll be the same as when IL2 came out and everything struggled. Eventually though these things iron themselves out, so I'm not following the 'must build a new rig...NOW!' route for now.
I will of-course when I feel the need though.
Cheers, MP
