Why would you want anything better? Just because computers are cheap does not mean you have to buy one. That combo will do fine! Like I said, trading does not require anything special.
If you don't mind me asking, what kind of trading are you doing?

I'm scalping. *Wouldn't mind opening a retail account in the future for longer term trading though*
Problem is, I really need to update the processor anyways. I also do music production on this PC and I run some 3D Graphical Applications as well *yeah yeah... I love messing around with art as well*.
Photo editing, video editing...... I don't know, I'm screwing around with everything on my computer. That is why I basically needed a better PC.
Plus I like playing Battlefield 2 on the pc as well as I know a few others on ET like playing it as well
I guess I will wait though. I can be patient with that. I just really wanted a dual monitor set-up because I can only have one chart at a time on my PC with the Laser platform as well. It would be nice to have another screen available to have charts filled on that screen for the few other stocks I trade and can become aware of when they make the formations that I like to trade and such. Right now I can only monitor one equity at a time, and it causes me to miss a lot of great opprotunities that I could have possibly seen if I just had the chart in my vision. So I know exactly why risktaker has his screens like he does, must be a dream to be able to have any stock filled up on a screen with charts.
Just a complex issue.
EDIT:
Posted by myminitrading on his journal.... would love to have a set-up like that.
