yes that is a high-end processor. And for the graphics if you want to go totally nuts get an ATI RADEON HD 4870 X2. but for just average gaming i recommend ATI RADEON X1600 PRO. Google them both see what you think.

Answer 2

Yeah, Ryan knows what he's talking about. I, though, prefer NIVIDIA, if i were you I would look at a GTX 200 Series, such as maybe a GTX 295 for max performance or GTX 260 (216 version) for best bang for the buck. Should be a fun computer!
