For a lot less money then if you upgrade your cpu and ram. From what you have described the 7750 should be fine for what you do video wise.

Thanks for your thoughts and pointers. I did a little research and I can get some decent x58 boards now. When I built my system there were only 2 x58 boards out there and both were SATA II only and lacked some other perks like USB 3.0. Maybe I should look into slapping a closed loop water cooler on the 920, upgrade to 24 GB ram (max the 920 can support) and just act like its a new computer, all for under $750. Sounds good to me!

2010 Camaro SS modified extensively. I stretched the body to make it a 4 door, but I swapped in the 3.6L DI V6 for fuel economy. Then I picked up a corvette body around the V8. I also swapped the body for a C2 Z28. (In short I traded it for three cars, a Corvette Z06r, a C2 Camaro Z28, and a Cadillac CTS Summer Performance package 3.6L DI with Aisin 6spd.)
