IMO you would be better off spending a bit more and getting the 8800GTS.

I can get an overclocked 8600GTS for $169 on newegg, the cheapest 8800GTS is $269, I can't see spending another $100 on a card. I'm not a big gamer, and I don't have a lot of money right now, so if i go with a DX10 card, it will most likely be the 8600GTS. THanks omega and everyone else for all the input.

Thats pretty good, but you have to be able to beat my score with an 8800GTS and a C2D E6300, which got 10,092.

lol thank you for posting omega...i posted to get some comparisons =D
Say I'm trying to break 10000, would overclocking the cpu to 3ghz be enough, or do I have to overclock the video card as well...maybe it's overkill, chances are I'm not gonna oc anything until i need to..(when crysis comes out >_>), because I can run lost planet on full everything in dx10 at 48fps avg according to fraps...hl2 ep1 at 60fps at 1920x1080

If you overclock to 2.8Ghz you should be able to easily pass 10K.
