Basically you have to throw out both your CPU and mobo, and if you decide to go for Intel/775/i925, your ram as well. If you go for AMD/939/NF4/KT890 or Intel/775/i915(some support DDR400) you can keep your ram.

Actually, there are plent 915 mobo's that support PCIe and DDR1 memory. Not nForce4's however, so you will not get the SLI option, but you still get a PCIe slot

That's what I said, 915s support DDR400!

6800 Ultra -> 55 fps (No FSAA/AF) & 44 fps (4x FSAA/8x AF)
X800XT -> 50 fps (No FSAA/AF) & 40 fps (4x FSAA/8x AF)

A member here wanted me to test the bloodyrayne demo at a 1280x960 resolution. Here are the results, as you can see, at this resolution, I hit a CPU bottleneck. Please keep in mind I don't know his exact specs... (the results above are his FPS's)

Single Card
1280x960 0xAA/0xAF
