    Looks decent. I'd go with a diffrent MOBO and get the RAM from a reputable store, not e-bay. Otherwise looks decent.

        Everythings fine if your on a budget or whatever, but if have money left over, get another gig of RAM, or pick a different graphics card, that graphics card is fine, and will play it on med-high settings, but if your securing yourself for the future, and future games and not having to change the gfx card for a while then try save up or buy a 7800 GT, or the 6800 GS/ultra.

          Yes, I am on quite the budget. Your sig says you have a 6600 256mb, how does that run?

            A 6600gt will own a 6600, no matter how much memory it has. Stick with the gt.

                        Maybe get a 3800x2 processor and a ASUS SLI Deulxe Mobo, don't be cheap with those componets if you want your computer to last a good year or too. Also see if you can get an eVGA Nvidia Geforce 7800 GT from newegg, the run about 300 bucks which isn't that bad

                            I agree, go with this mobo:

                            it is a little more but soo worth it
                            Also don't buy that RAM, not that buying RAM off Ebay isn't a good idea, don't buy CL3 memory, spend the extra coin and get 2.5 or better yet 2.0
                            Like the Video card, I have 2 XFX 6800GS OC's SLI'ed in my rig, also for really not a whole lot more this CPU is great: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/Produc...ctCode=80717-1
                            The clawhammer core rocks!
