Time for upgrade

What's your budget. I don't think sli is worth it and deff go for Nvidia they are far ahead of ATI at the moment.

Have you thought about building it yourself?
 
800 seems to be a budget ocuk are missing on there pre-built system.

If your willing to build yourself you could get something like this and pretty much all q6600 can overclock to 3ghz+ have a look at some other threads about overclocking the q6600

Hardly any different at all, certainly isn't worth the extra cost.

Also might just want to check that the cooler fits the mobo. ie. you can fit the ram in.
Most people go for the turniq cpu cooler. This one doesn't cool as well but by no means bad) but it is a lot quieter).

As has been said next month sees nvidia releasing a completely new gpu. this will probably be out of your price range, but it should push the prices down.

Although if you could afford it you could get the 9800, could sacrifice the sound card. or get a cheap case.
