Better RAM Motherboard cannot be upgraded to a better CPU. No more than a QX6850... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817341002 This PSU...

i just ordered this last night. and im not looking for upgrades right now.
that power supply is lower then the one i have now. id like the extra power as i may go sli with 2 8800gt cards and i like the reviews on the corsair ram. plus price was good for me |

Yes... Ah well. Your computer...
2x 8800GTs? Good luck with that... I hope you won't regret it TOO much later...

Look at it this way, 2x 8500GT's won't beat a single 8600.
SLi is made for people who basically go for looks and stuff over performance... After buying the SLi motherboard, SLi ready PSU, and 2x cards, you could've gotten a whole new and overall faster card, and still have a bunch of cash left...

Meh, your build...
A GTX is... around a teeny bit better than the 8800GT itself... One better card is the winner over 2 slower cards.
