goodness gracious. pardon my bluntness, but are you seriously going to spend that much money on a personal computer? even for the highest end gaming you don't need all that. I don't know loads about computers, but I know that for high end gaming a sub $10k system could easily run three large monitors (which might be overkill too, seeing as that would require a desk that's at least 7 feet long), especially with the quad 7900GTX's coming out. that right there is just crazy.
If you plan to buy a $5000 dollar computer every 2 years, why not just buy a $5000 pc now? if you're going to buy another computer that soon, then the difference between fps isnt worth all that extra cost. you probably wouldnt even notice a difference. but really though, why not save the money for something else? it seems pretty unwise to use all that new income you got right off the bat...why not save it for your kid's college expenses? Just because there is money to spend doesnt mean that it must be spent. I'm not saying that you said that (you seem very humble actually, especially compared to that doom guy we had a while back) but it just seems to be a waste.
