hia, i have a nvidia 295, q9550 @4ghz, 4GB DDR2 1066 MHZ corsair dominator ram. was thinking of upgrading either my GPU for 2 6950's or upgrading CPu MB etc with a 2600k z68 gigyabyte MB and kingston 2x4GB ddr3 1600mhz ram.

what you think would be better. not all convinced with a gpu upgrade so close to new releases...
 
I think you should wait till next year.

I had a GTX295 once, while its missing DX11 features it was a very fast card that could monster games.

Your current CPU is still good and with that overclock you are running should not be a bottleneck.

Wait for games such as BF3/Skyrim to be released and then see how your performance fairs.

what GPU you got now. and is it a big improvement ?
