Hey guys, long time lurker first time poster.
Looking to upgrade my Core2 Duo e7500, I'd prefer i7 if possible and I'm NOT against buying used mobo/ram (though I'd prefer new processor) I'm just not too sure where to look.
I do have family members in MA near a microcenter there and may end up getting them to buy/ship me a i7 950, unless I find a better/more logical deal.
Thank you for all the help :

Thank you for all the help :
- PC will be mainly used for gaming, though I do use photoshop on occasion for making forum sigs.
- My budget is about $600~$625 dollars.
- I live in South West Florida
- I need a processor, motherboard, and ram.
- I will be reusing my two GTX260's as well as my Corsair TX750w as well as my Coolermaster CM690 (with 3 added 120mm case fans) My CPU cooler will be a Spire Thermax Eclipse II
- I do plan on overclocking it to 4ghz (or as high as I can go over 4ghz safely on air)
- Currently I have a 19" widescreen monitor native resolution 1440x900 (I will be upgrading this at a later time)
- I plan on buying this ASAP, just have to find the right deals
- Motherboard should have SLI support, I'd prefer USB3.0 and SATA 6gbps but with my budget I'd understand if thats not possible.
- I do have a legit copy of Windows 7 Ultimate x64
