So I figured its time for an upgrade, and I have about $250 to spend. I'm split between getting a new graphics card and a new CPU. Right now I have an ATI X1950 256mb and a E4400 dou core 2.00GHz. Any suggestions?

Weird bump, this doesn't seem to be showing up in the board.

I would suggest your GPU, but you're CPU will need OCing or replacing sometime soon as well.

You'll see a HUGE performance jump in games going from the X1950 Pro to an HD4850. Your cpu is still good, just overclock it a little.

overlock your CPU, and get a 4850. Make sure your PSU is big enough tho.
