build a socket 775 build with some used parts.. you dont need i7 and 12gbs of ram unless your encoding video etc..
A used parts socket 775 build will destroy anything on the market...
i suggest Q95XX or q6600 overlclocked i790 boards will run ddr3 i believe and you can still get whatever video card you want on socket 775 for sooo much cheaper than an i7 system.
just an idea.

What he said^
I am running this on an older gaming system that I built a few years back and not only does it run P99 fine, it runs most everything I throw at it fine. Asus 775 socket board, 2.66 ghz core 2 duo, 8 gb corsair ddr2 memory, 8800 GTS 640 mb video card, 1TB black caviar hard drive, etc. Outdated I know but it runs good for me.

You can build something better for cheap without going bleeding edge, and still have enough horsepower to run most games.
