I'm still thinking of getting the 6600GT Dual GPU, but also the 6800 Ultra has caught my eye
This is an excellent idea a friend has the 3D1 the kit is gigabyte(ive been happy with giabyte stuff ive used), with a 3200 and he is very happy with it,but if you can afford the ultra it will be a better single card and if you buy a sli enabled one you can always add another once lottery is won
