What to Upgrade to?

[secolliyn]

System Specs are going to be
Core I7 920 (Stock Clock)
Intel Extreme Series DV58S0
6Gb Ram DDR3- 1333
DVD Writer X2
500GB Main Hard drive
Aux HD's
1X 500, 1X 320, 1X 160
8800GT Alpha dog XFX
620 Watt power supply SLI ready


Now that system will be up an running soon and i was thinking of in the next few weeks just the video card from the 8800GT to a 275GTX
I would still use the 8800GT in the other PCI Ex slot not for SLI but as a dedicated Physics

My question is- Is that a decent upgrade or should i hold off i do only play games at a 1680X1050 on a 22 in ViewSonic Monitor
The other question i have is useing the 8800GT as a dedicated Physics Processor a good idea?

I am also not looking for an ATI Cards Just a fan of Nvidia Cards and the CUDA with baddaboom

Thank you in advance for any help I may get

^ A 8800GT to GTX 275 is a pretty good upgrade...But if you can, wait till October as ATI is set to launch their newer DirectX 11 cards, that would obviously push the prices down of the DirectX 10 cards and they might also be a good option to consider...

Well if you want to play games on rly high graphics for like a year starting from october buying ASUS EAH4890 FORMULA for 230$ would be a good option then after this year buy ati's or nvidia's best. Games don't have that big requirements i don't understand why people buy 500$ cards and proccesors crossfiring or sliing like 3 of them at a time when they don't even need to. After some time they will eventually have to buy the newest cards and proccesors example: one buys 2gtx 295s and a huge power supplier and expensive motherboard then a gtx320 comes out and he wasted 1500$ instead of 500$ there's no need..
You could also buy a good motherboard for overclocking till you wait for the new gpu.
