Ok, so I'm looking for a graphics emphasis build (Gaming, 3D Modelling, Ect). I'm looking to salvage from my previous build a: 1000W PSU 1TB HDD CD/DVD Drives Xonar 7.1 Soundcard *ATI 5850 And that's basically it. AM3 or AM2+ setup, and I'd like a classy, good looking case while you're at it too, not some ricer LED gamer crap. *Only in CrossFire or something
So what are your current specs exactly? (Post Speccy screenshot).
With $1000 imo you'll be better off with 1155, instead of AM3
Until Bulldozer comes out you will want an 1155 CPU.
Wouldn't you just be better off selling your current build? I mean if your going to change that much shit anyways.

[QUOTE=zombiefreak;27210645]I don't think a Q6600, P5k-e, and 8gb of ddr2 ram are going to be worth that much.[/QUOTE] 8GB Ram is actually kind of worth a lot, compared to most other Ram. And a Q6600 can probably sell for a bit too. You're better off with a 1155. Sandy Bridges are awesome.
DDR2 ram should be pretty expensive now afaik.
I would keep the PSU, HDD, and the DVD drive maybe the case too
