I'm building a new PC for college (studying Digital Animation), and I wanted to see what some people thought of my new setup. Any suggestions as to where I could change some hardware would be appreciated, if it's for the better.

Case:

Gigabyte P45 Dxxx Mobo
Geforce GTX260 superclocked (626core/2106memory 896MB)
Core 2 Quad Q9550 (2.83GHZ) processor (OC'ing to 3.5ghz+)
630W PSU
4gb DDR3 1600mhz ram
320gb SATA drive
320gb Western Digital passport external HD (school files kept here)
320gb IDE Internal Drive (school files backup)
1tb external HD (everything else kept here)

How will this run games such as Crysis and Far Cry 2, and rendering scenes from Maya or 3DS Max?
