I'd just like to ask everyone what system (CPU + motherboard) upgrade gave you the largest, most noticeable performance increase?
For me, it was going from an overclocked AMD mobile Barton (2600 I think) to an Intel Pentium D 945+. With the mobile Barton (socket 462 I think) alt-tabbing out of any process that had any significant CPU usage was an exercise in futility, much less any game. The Pentium D 945+ system changed all that.
