Well sorta... I need a new graphics card, a 275 GTX or better preferably, and a new power supply to fuel the thing. Both for under $250 with shipping.

If y'all have any other suggestions, they're greatly appreciated.

Well, thats not very convincing, I know I can find a cheaper supply.

edit: I also need a nVidia based card, because I'm going to Hybrid-SLI the card to my on board card that I have now.

gtx 275's are about $250 themselves...... there are cheaper versions, but they are downclocked and stuff like that.

And a decent power supply will be 80-200..... you can find them cheaper, but what you don't pay in the cost you will pay for in electric bill....

Would a combo like this card (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4910543&CatId=3775) with this power supply (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817709015) work?
