Hi Hoodie

Welcome back to PC Help Forum

Well that looks like one snappy box of tricks to me mate, but can I just ask if you can hang around for just a short while as I have no doubt one or more of the Tech team cats will have something to say on that most excellent spec.

Its a nice system, although i would recommend going intel core2duo, they perform better than AMD's range.

It would not be able to run all the games at high detail levels with the 7300GS as it is a fairly low end card. But with the Geforces 7950GT's or GX2 it will most likely be able to run most games at full detail. I would go for the GX2 myself because im not a big fan of SLI but its your decision.

I would recommend more RAM.

Also, as a former customer of Cyberpower, I will warn you that they do make nice computers, but their customer service is among the worst that I have ever seen. They sent me the wrong CD, I called, they sent me wrong CD again, I called again, sent wrong CD yet again.

Also, my neighbor got a computer that didn't work out of the box and they gave her heck about it.
Just to warn you.
