Ive just seen this for 580 euros (number coincidence lol). Its a tempting offer (770 dollars)

GIGABYTE X58A-UD5:(1366)DDR3,2PCIe
Intel Core i7-950 3,06Ghz
DDR3 4Gb 1600Mhz HyperX KHX1600C9AD3K2/4G Kit2x2 x2 8GB
 
Tempting. But I would still go with the GTX 580. If gaming is your main focus, the 580 will be a much better upgrade.
 
Another vote for the 580. An overclocked Q9950 is plenty of power for pretty much anything gaming related.

You could even keep the 275 in your x4 slot as a PhysX card.
