If the goal is to have an Intel platform with an i7 than this is (was?) probably worth it, can't touch an i7 CPU and mobo combo for less than $450-ish. GTS-250 is another $110-150. Add in the rest and a Win7 license and you're at or over the $800.
If the goal is just to have a powerful computer without intensive gaming requirements then IMO you can do at least $150 better by scaling back to a C2Q or i5 and cutting the graphics back into the $80 range. Pricing gets even better if AMD is an option.
