Default Parts of the Gaming Computer I Might Build

Would this be a good computer for gaming? Cleric7x9 built this computer (Not literally of course, but he gave me a list of everything) for me. He says it's good, and I trust him, but I also want some other opinions. What do you guys think?

Computer:


MOBO: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128050 $130

CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115016 $186

RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820161067 $45

GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130056 $105 with rebate

case/PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811156062 $70

HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822144415 $49

optical: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...=DVD-ROM+Drive $18

that comes to just over $600

you should be able to play most games on medium-high settings with that setup. things you may want to consider upgrading would be the RAM and the PSU

Part
It's the processor, a core 2 duo.

Oh, well, that would cost over 700 for the final price, so I can't do it. 700 is already a pretty big stretch...

He would need a motherboard that supports 1333 FSB which adds + into the final price

He has a board that can support it in that build. I would go for the E6750 if possible too.
