Go for a top notch AMD rig with 6950 2gb OC for around 16k. For gaming AMD isn't all that bad especially when you use a graphic card which is nearly 50% faster than what you would use otherwise :)

BTW i think we DH67BL should be suggested instead of DH67CL coz it makes no sense in paying 1k more for just 2 extra PCI slots as most people dont use PCI cards thses days as they are damn slow.
