Have look at this spec and let me know if this will work. I want the computer to last atleast for a 2 to 3 years before upgrading. Thanks for you help

I would personally go am3, and not even think about intel socket 775 as it is end of life, and no new cpu releases on that platform, so be warned that in the future, if you get socket 775 then you will need a new mobo and cpu when you upgrade. Id go for something like this:
Mobo:

Triple core>Dual core, same price, and DDR3, with a crossfire capable motherboard too
