If that is your thing than congrats.
For me and I guess for a few others like AlexZ playing those games again at max details is what we are after. Today i want the dream experience, not the experience that I had back in the day (by the way I had a 6600GT in 2004-2005 and I was so disappointed with it) or the correct time period experience (because even with a top of the line graphic card released in the year "you name it" you can not max out the games released the same year).
I just started again FEAR with the GTS 250 and it looks amazing even 20 years later with everything turned on. I think I will keep this machine after all testing is done in order to play fully maxed out the games that are not possible on a socket A system - I am even thinking that I will put a Creative X-Fi into the system to get the complete experience.

To Joseph Joestar: you are correct sir. 2 cards are better than one and certainly constitutes a solution to the "period correct hardware has insufficient performance" problem!
