for gaming this needs to be changed.
CPU E8400
Mother board Ex38-DS4
Ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145194
i have changed to DDR 800 4-4-4-12 because it is faster that DDR3 1600 7-7-7-18

Cool
 
That Q6700 will do just fine for gaming, don't listen to that E8400 crap.

As for hard drives, get whatever you want. Bigger is fine.
