I give it a 7.75, due to the fact u have a ATI card on a nVidia chipset! Power supply is ok, Antec would be a booster and a 500 watt at that. Processor is pretty good no complaints there. Here's my rig:

i just recently upgraded so pay no attention to my sig

Thermaltake Tsunami(modded for the Raptor window so u can see it)
AMD Athlon X2 4800+ Oc'd to 2.8GHz
Asus A8N-SLI Delux
8 GB of Cosair Ram (using the 4 slot PCI card)
2 x nVidia 7900 GTX both Oc'd
BFG AGEIA PhysX card
Antec 550 watt PSU
850 GB of HDD space (1 Raptor 150 GB with the window)
2 x Plextor DVD-Ram burners both at 18x speed

I think it's a 10? i dunno that's my guess :)

WOW, im surprised you can run all of that with a 550 watt powersupply. I think your power supply should be more at about 750w to 1kw. I'm pretty sure those GPU's need a lot of power. It's a good rig, but they powersupply has to go. That cpu is also pretty demanding as I have it myself. Take a look at this psu. It should be enough.

A little pricey, yes, but those 7900's do require a lot of power in order to render graphics properly.

@lecsiy : I give it a 10 for average gamers and a 8.0 for hardcore gamers.

It's a nice rig indeed and will play anything out there maxed out.Also no that doesn't mean 5.6 ghz because a 5.6 ghz will smoke any dual core on the market.However dual core is a powerful new option and is better than a single core...

@AxFactor nice ride man I wish I had that! You got ageia damn! Man when more games start supporting it that will be awesome.

@a7xsoad The 550 watt would do fine.750 watt is overkill and will make noise and heat up everything.But I know what you mean.

Id say a 7. I have an x2 3800 and its great. Im not a fan of ATI and you could have a better ram setup (2 1gb sticks are better than 4 512 sticks).

2GB Patriot DDR 400, Audigy 2 ZS gamer, 400GB SATA RAID 0

Are you sure? I thought the ebst setup would be:

2 x 512mb Dual channel
1 x 1gb bit of ram!

Or maybe just:

2 x 512mb Dual channel
2 x 512mb Dual channel
