I'm upgrading to a quad-core next month (PhenomII X4 920). I hope that will provide a performance increase with my new 6GB of very nice timed RAM.

Then I just have to get a better GPU. I've got a GTX 285 in mind. Take me a while to get the GPU though, tight on cash.

What do you guys think?

I´ve got a gtx 285 but if you´re on a tight budget i would suggest either the gtx 275 or an overclocked gtx 260. The small performance differance if not really worth the extra cash imo.

One more thing, if you´re opting for a nvidia card i would suggest one with a more quiet cooler since the reference one is really loud at 100% fan speed.

I think the Ati cards still have a better price/performance ratio though.

Yes the fans on all AMD coolers are very loud. My dual-core AMD is louder than my friend's quad-core Q6600. Although I have Cool-'n-Quiet off, so that contributes.

I don't really care about sound imo because I'm getting an aftermarket cheap cooler/fan anyway. Also my case is very well insulated.

It's still now officially out in the US. The official publishing site still says "Coming Soon" and there is no PhysX patch yet.
