Your system would be bottlenecked by the processor. Adding another 4850 could make a slight improvement, but your overall system would still be bottlenecked by your processor.

Vista Compatibility Question
Is vista compatible with older versions of office? For example, office '97 or '03. A new computer may be in the works, but I'm seeing where I can save money; ie: software.
