Similar situation here. Not really interested in building another gaming PC currently either.
But... if I was going to bother doing a rebuild, I would spend no less than $300 on the VGA card alone. I suppose a $400 VGA card upgrade with no other upgrades would be just fine, but about the only things I would really re-use for a proper rebuild would be my PSU and DVD drive. Less than $100 in savings.
I don't count the cost of displays unless someone is starting from absolute zero though. That's like saying if you spend $1500 on a good HDTV, your $400 console cost closer to two grand.
