If you're going for a video card, go straight to the Tesla K80. Won't need to upgrade for decades.

I had my GTX460 2GB card for...5 years. Everything I played on it was 30+ FPS. I then upgraded to a GTX660. Still have it and have NO issues with any game. 30+ still.

Scientists mostly (from grants). Enroll in a grad program! Bet that single card puts the 512 node cluster my school had to shame. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I thought the "Tesla K80" post was some kind of trolling. Like telling him to install Google Ultron.

Nope. This sorcery is real:

For SSD i would keep a eye out at http://slickdeals.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=9
With black friday around corner there will be plenty of deals to be had.

For Video card can check out http://www.evga.com/Products/ProductList.aspx?type=8
Its refurbed stuff with year warrenty. Ive gotten 3 cards from their bstock in the last 2 years and havent had issues with any of them.

If all you mainly play is EQ you will be fine getting one of the 50-100 dollars cards just make sure they are compatible with your system.
