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.

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.
