Should I move my pc to my big screen or new vid card?

I have to make a choice. I got 500 dollars. I can eaither buy a 500 pc to put in my home office for basic web browsing stuff and move my gaming pc into my home theater with my 60 inch tv

 

Or get a new video card to replace my gtx 460?

 

I gotta say I have hooked my pc up to home theater system and it is incredible!

Personally I'd go for the big screen every time

Ended up ordering a dell i3 8gb ram with a terabyte hard drive with windows 8 for only 399. Will be a great office/web browsing pc. Next step is to move the gaming rig to the home theater!

Finally got the pc all setup in my home theater. I ended up putting the pc behind my wall next to my av rack. It's connected to my 5.1 avr and 60 inch pioneer elite plasma. Looks fantastic even at 3 feet away. Still very sharp. Much much better than my 24 inch monitor. With all the aa and af the games look great. I ended up buying some usb extenders and mounted them on my center speaker stand so I can just unplug everything when I am not using my pc.
