What's my rig's bottleneck?

[pingpongmury]

I'm wondering what of my components would be causing others to bottleneck.

Current setup:

- BFG tech. 8800GT OC2 (oc'd to 700 Mhz core, 1,000 mhz memory).

- AMD Athlon 5400+ Black Edition (oc'd to 3.0 Ghz)

- 4GB of PQI Turbo ddr2

- ECS c51pvgm-gb motherboard (cheap) oc'd PCI-E Reference clock to 2,925 Mhz

- 550w Rosewill PSU

- x1 Hitachi 250gb, x1 Seagate Barracuda 300gb

- Air cooled w/ x2 80mm exhaust, x2 120mm intake (Scythe Ultrakaze @ 3,000 RPM and 144CFM)

Hi pingpongmury,
that's a pretty evenly matched system....so it comes down to what you use the system for. if its gaming then obviously a new GPU would be in order. if multitasking, then a CPU.
i see two very weak spots though, the motherboard, ECS is not a well built MB. and two, the Rosewill PSU. for the same reason. Rosewill is a Newegg house brand. I have talked with a tech @ newegg and even he called the Rosewill brand a "work in progress"
just some things to consider.

thanks for the help... and i didn't find this site and start to be told that the rosewill PSU was a bad choice due to their unreliability until after i built that rig.. and as for the ECS motherboard it was in the Gateway GT5220 that i revamped, that's been at the top of my list to replace, just making sure..

thank's again
