please post the link for the power supply. thanks. and depending on what you will be doing, that processor will get you along pretty good. it is almost as fast as mine, if not faster, and runs much cooler. just remember when you build your pc, ground yourself so as not to fry your computer.

oh bioshock? eh heh. that processor will get you nowhere with that game sorry to say. the graphics card is great, but i reccomend this processor (i know it is an American site, but you get an idea on the price.) Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4GHz

Also, that power supply is just a little too cheap and basic. People often make hte mistake of skimping on the power supply. i reccomend this one- Antec True Power Trio TP3-650 ATX12V 650W

Ok well i have changed wat i am getting to

Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.13GHz (1066FSB) - Retail
XFX 8600GT 256MB DDR3 540MHz Core Clock 2xDVI PCI-E - Ebuyer
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX22GB6400UDC)
Antec Basic 500W PSU
Gigabyte GA_P35C_DS3R (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 & DDR3 Motherboard
How will this be on games and will it run bioshock?

P.S
If i upgrade this to a 8800 in 6-8months will it still be gd or will i need a Porcessor Upgrade

hmm... ok that list should be good. i dont really like that power supply, but it should work, and when/if you upgrade to a 8800 i would consider getting a better one
