My bets are for the 7600 GT, and it's probably what I'm going to set up. By the way, can you SLI that card?

You can sli pci-e cards for the most part, at least most of the high end ones.

I'm running nVidia 6800 GS' in sli right now. I think I'll wait untill ut2007 is closer before I build a new rig.

6800 in sli isn't to shabby tag. If you wait you can get a dx10 card, all the cards now are at the end of their lifecycles as dx10 and vista are coming soon and all cards now are just dx9. Dx10 has some major improvements in it for games. I don't think people will really feel they have to get vista for another year and a half though. Around then it will be obvious that you will need to upgrade because many new games will be supporting dx10 with dx9 compatibility but all the bells and whistles will be for dx10.
