Yer, new os and more ram is certainly the 'plug & play' upgrade.
I have 2 hdd so a quick transfer of all I want to keep to my data drive would be a simple-ish job.
I need to have a tidy up of duplicate files/backups anyway.
plus I could always run a dual boot W7/XP...
It's the CPU thing that bothers me regarding the socket architecture compatibility and required bios flash to get it to work. This is mainly with the aim of meeting the min spec requirement of Red Orchestra 2 at some point, but I have been thinking about a general upgrade for a while now.
