They have come a long way. Used to be you needed a 2000 dollar system to run anything decent. I built one for somebody that cost under 500 and runs crysis at 30 fps! Not outstanding but good and he will be able to sli or crossfire his computer relatively cheaply. I have two 3650s in my computer that cost 67 dollars at Newegg.com you can get them right now for 50 dollars each that's a 100 dollar crossfire solution that runs better than any 100 dollar card you can think of.
Amd duel core processors are cheaper than heck and the memory for them is lower than ever.
My next project is hooking up a htpc with wireless kb and mouse so you can play mmos from the couch and watch it on a 32" screen ;) Less than 500 dollars with OS

I'll have to upgrade eventually, though it will probably be in 2009 after I get my tax rebate. Right now my Xbox 360 is my main gaming machine, and I'm loving it. (damn you McDonalds!!!)
