Hi going to build my new games rig this saturday and just wondering if its going to be up to scratch or if any of you have the same parts in ypor rig and what you think of them.
The main games i play are battlefield 2 and defo 2142 as soon as it comes out and have been looking in to elder scrols oblivion it looks pretty good in the graphics department, any way this is what i am getting

256MB Palit 7900GS PCI-E (x16), Mem 1320 MHz, GPU 450 MHz, 20 Pipes, Dual DVI/HDTV graphics card

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Socket 939, ManchesterCore, 2x 2.2GHz, 1MBCache, Retail cpu

ASUS A8V-XE VIA K8T890, S939, PCI-E (x16), DDR 400, SATA II, SATA RAID, ATX mother board

So what do you guys think will this be any good or OBLIVION and will it be any good for a OVERCLOCK i have heard the 7900gs has massive potential

Thanks for any replies Danny
