Hey, you guys can see my computer in my sig, and my dad said that I can upgrade one part of my computer, under a certain budget (i dont know what the budget is yet), but which part of my comp do you think i should upgrade?

oh yeah, dont worry about the hard drive space
 
I would definately change that PSU. Not saying Rosewill PSU's are bad (I own one) but I think 400W are not enough for a 8800GT plus all other things that you may have. When your dad tells you the budget, if it's not too low get the Corsair HX520 power supply. It is a great PSU that will not let your comp down and it is modular which means the cables come separate from the PSU so you only connect the cables you need! ;) Another choice would be the OCZ GameXStream 600W.

Here are the links for both:

Corsair HX520 (520W)

OCZ GameXStream (600W)

IF the budget is not very big, I would say Cooler Master, Antec (earthwatts series) or even Rosewill PSU's (just higher wattage and 12+ amperage) will do the job

Hope that helped man :)

I agree. But, if it's running fine now with that low wattage of a PSU then I guess leave it. I'm honestly surprised though that you don't have problems with that big of a graphics card.

Everything else looks pretty good though, what kind of screen are you using?
