Currently running a Q9550 at 3.2 GHz coupled with a 5870 and wondering if there's much point to installing a 580 GTX... certainly would be better to go i7, but I'm not up for the kilobuck upgrade at the moment.

I understand that you're feeling a little poor at the moment given the recession, personally I would say that upgrading probably won't yield the full effect of the graphics upgrade so may not be worth it until you can 'afford' that central upgrade for your entire system.
Well, I honestly hope that Bulldozer puts AMD back in the game, but I don't see any real indications that it will. My fingers are crossed and I sure hope they get it out early in Q2.
