That's impossible to say really, with the rate at which games and tech is advancing. It should last a year and a half without the need for an upgrade but always keep in mind nothing is future-proofed.

As Gishank says its impossible to tell. In my opinion the market is currently being capped by the consoles. Anyone not releasing for 360 is missing a huge part of their market (Crysis anyone?) so essentially thats the hardware to at least match then + some more on. If however in a years time they release a new model then game requirements can potentially leap forwards again.

Personally I would at least get a 850W PSU instead of 650W as with your current setup 4GB will last a while and if it doesnt its easy to plug some more in. The only other thing that will potentially limit you is graphics, 470GTX should last ages but on the off chance it doesnt and you need to upgrade/go down the SLI route 850W should cover you for that whereas im not sure the 650 would.

Anyway thats my recommendation at attempting future proof but its impossible to say when the next leap in tech will be.

Well then welcome to sunny England! Where you from?

As Sweeney says, its probably best to put your PSU up to an 850w now rather then have to fork out later on down the line because inevitably sooner or later your going to need to put in another GFX card in SLI.
