Hello Dudes and Dudetts.

I have just received my nice GTX570 for Crimbo and an SSD for my Birthday on the 10th Jan, At present i run:

Asus Striker Ex (original)
Intel QX6800
8GB Geil Ultra Ram
300GB Velo Raptor
3x 1.5TB
Creative XFi Elite

DID have a pair of 8800 GTXs (both with full waterblocks)
Highest end water components.

I have been aiming to upgrade for some time now, but i am actually going to do it now as my FPS is extremely sucky with the new GTX570.

DILEMMA:

I NEED to do this Upgrade SOON so i cant be waiting for the 1365Socket.

DO I;
1, Go down the route of skt 1366 ?
2, Go down the route of skt 1155? (when its released)
3, Go back over to the darkside and slap in an AMD 1055t?
or
4, Your input.
 
wait for the release of sandybridge in a few weeks and change chip and mobo....with the stuff you have should be a nice rig......whats the speed of your ram?
 
i dont so much have a Budget no, i spent over 3K when i built this PC and its lasted me 3-4 years, i dont think i have it in me again to spend that sort of coin.

My RAM is DDR2 Cammy, will need to replace that too with some DDR3.
