You can squeeze out a dollar here and there, but that's basicly the minimum amount of money it'll cost.

Touche.

Yeah, roughly $500 dollars is the cheapest it'll go. I'm thinking about trying a Phenom II x2 and a cheap motherboard to get it down to like $400. >.>

For just a bit more than $10, you might also want to consider the GTX 550 Ti, would highly recommend it - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-625-_-Product

It's much better value to performance wise imo.
