A TV card? If you get one, get a decent one with hardware mpeg encoding/decoding for PVR goodness.

How about some kick-ass speakers to go with the soundcard mentioned above?

I assume you've got a decent monitor already.

crowej

i forget to mention that i have an audigy 2 and some good speakers so i am pretty happy with the sound setup i also have a good tv card hauppauge wint tv pvr mce 500 so i am covered in that dept.

anyone think i should get more ram ?

uberpixie

you have 2gig, no point buying anymore.

Think about getting either a 74 or a 150 gig western dig raptor for windows and games

Yeah I'd go for a new 150GB Raptor as the primary drive and put the remaining drives in a mirrored RAID array for a bit of backup.

Also maybe a new laser mouse from Logitech or Microsoft

Here's something a little cheaper but essential

On a more serious and perhaps boring note, you could get a Printer or Scanner.

crowej

so no one has any cool gadets or anything i should buy for my pc then ?

SouperComputer

hmmm, cant think of anything for €200

8T8

Well if you want to waste some money GeekStuff4U sell some crazy Japanese gadgets, Sushi styled USB memory sticks, USB Christmas trees and USB tea/coffee heater pads.

On a slightly more usefull note the Windows X360 controller could be handy for certain games if you dont have one.

sdanseo

What about games, anything you want in that department?

Ye'd pick up 4 new releases or thereabouts

ShiverinEskimo

Watercooling Rad, Resevoir, Pump, Tubing, CPU block, Fans etc.

Watercool that beast and then start overclocking.

riptide

You might get one of those wooden keyboards and a mouse for €200. Classy!

Or get a very swish external harddrive.

wavin

a bicycle
