And for the record, stop passing the whole 60fps thing on cause you read it from somewhere, ask opticians, its not true.
i totally know what you mean with the 60/100 difference,
if people only saw things in 60fps then it would be a pretty dull world.
i'm a little late to this party but i understand where your comming from, i try to ride my computers for as long as i can but i eventually upgrade bit by bit.
think of it this way, if you get that set up you can always go to an i7 later on down the road, as for the rest of it thats kinda up to you but i still understand.
a little while ago i got a bunch of crap for getting 4 gigs of ram "oh you'll never need that much" or "your getting that video card to replace your 8600? it'll hardly be worth it" and it was even after they have had all their little internet opinions....well guess what. some times its best not to listen and go with your gut feeling. then ask all the questions you want because you already have the hardware, i do but there generally, how do i get an extra 100Mhz out of my processor sort of things.
also another prime example of not listening is the lower res = more cpu stress theroy, the 60FPS theroy that we discussed earlier and the smaller monitors wont see a gain in performance between 1 brand x gpu or 3 brand y gpu's.
the last one gets me, its not the size of the monitor its the ammount of pixles on the monitor
