I already have a 8600gt XXX but I would buy another one and put it in SLI which would be the same speed as a 8800GTS.

Or maybe the E6300 with an FSB of 1066.

I recently build a whole new pc, with ssj12's suggestions, for under $1000 with the E8400.

How much were you trying to spend?

Under 500$ for a mobo,processor, ram, case and power supply.

 

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119088

$40

Power Supply: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171028

$40

Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128059

$90

CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037

$250

Ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820134218&Tpk=KHX8500D2K2%252f2G

$67

 

TOTAL = $ 487

I have these exact pieces, different PSU, and they work great. Very fast, CoD4 at highest levels too. And my Video card is the 8600GT 512MB.

 

EDIT: ohhh, just realized the SLi option is needed....
