I'm upgrading my computer and here's what I got:
Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0GHz E6850 $99
ASUS P5N-D NF750I SLI 775 $149.99
G.Skill 2gb $44.99

Free shipping and after tax its $300 and I'm using the rest from my old system till I can afford a better vid card.

rest of the system will be
700w Thermaltake PSU
ATi x1800 256mb
SB Audigy2
x2 WD 74gb Raptor 10k rpm raid 0
x2 WD 320gb raid 0

I'm debating if I should install XP or Vista x64. I know Vista sux but we're all gonna have to eventually upgrade and I know this rig can handle it fine. I'm also thinking of running either SLi 9600's or 8800's depending on which is cheaper at the time.
