Mah Gpu to like a 780 and mah case to idk what, havent found the perfect one yet, because this one is le dust magnet. 
And prob's my Cpu aswell, as this one is a shitty overclocker, and I'm running it at like 1.37v (it goes up to 1.39 in cpuz) to get stable 4.4ghz, but hey i've been running it like that for almost a year, and it's not dead, the temps are not THAT high it doesn't go past 85 in le summer when the ambient is around 30 degrees celsius, so for now I'm good. :D

My next upgrade will be either a new GPU (at this point I have decided to skip this generation and wait for Maxwell/Pirates Island) or new monitors (mine are ~5 years old). I will most likely wait to make these decisions until more information/data regarding G-sync and Mantle come out along with seeing how the addition of arm processors effects GPU performance.

I need to upgrade my current video card with GTX 780 or R9 290x with aftermarket cooling (if they look nice), but probably will go with GTX 780 as I favor more Nvidia, also replace my 8gb 1600mhz G.skill RAMs with 16gb 2400mhz G.Skill Trident X RAMs, and at the end add 4tb HDD for more storage. Then I'll be happy  :D

If I wasn't limited by that pesky money thing which I never seem to have enough of I would upgrade my 6850 to a 780ti. If I were to be more realistic about it though I would probably jump up to a R9 280x or GTX 770.
