That's not far off my current spec. I found a local PC component supplier who isn't a cowboy! I bought a 6800gts video card and he asked what my current spec was. I told him and after he picked himself up off the floor from laughing so hard he asked why didn't I upgrade. Money, said I. I had just blown my load on shiny new card. He offered to buy my old bits against new, matching the RAM for free. No-one ever does that around here, but he builds budget PCs with old bits. Couldn't resist, so the new card has a new home next to a quad core Q6600 and 2gb RAM.
