I'm having a hard time trying to decide what to spend my money on right now. I currently have a rig with a e7200 C2D @ 3.6 and an overclocked gtx 260. I know that in order to play games maxed out at 1080p that are going to come out over the next year i'm going to need to upgrade. I'm willing to shell out for a core i7 (which i'll overclock to 4.0ghz) and gtx 285 sli machine but only if I can guarantee that it will allow me to run games at 1080p and 60fps for a year or two because I cannot afford to spend 1k+ dollars on a new rig every year. How long can I expect such a rig to last? If it's only a year or less I think I'll simply get a 360 or ps3 and a huge LCD tv. I just bought my gtx 260 last December and really hate that I have to upgrade again to keep up, but if it will be the last upgrade i'll have to make for a seriously long time I'll definitely go for it.
** I would be able to save a crap ton of money if I did Gtx 260s in SLI because I already have one. Would this be enough for 1080p @60fps for a while?
