UPDATE : i changed my cooler again to a Thermalright extreme black. Look in my latest video in HD
UPDATE. I did oc my core i7 940 to a extreme core i7 965 only by changing the “bus speed” from 133 to 145. Everything is stable and i have now a 965 3.2ghz but half the price 
UPDATE: i changed the cpu cooling and also the psu ( now 1050W ). I made a video with the new things. Check it out….

ok ty i guess. my real rig got burnt . coz i forgot to check if the outlet was grounded. so i bought this one to have in the mean time. im still waiting for GF300 and i9 so… that’s why i have this rig. btw, the ram is only 1066 coz the fkn mb does only support up to 1066….
cool rig dude, but …
cool rig dude, but yeah in my opinion you should get like 2 gbs more of ram so it could be 6 and ofcourse get a faster type of ram like 1600mhz or 1800.. its upto you but you will see performance incrase

Lol, I have a Q6600 @ 3.83Ghz, 4gb OCZ 1066mhz and a GTX 285 1gb. and i max all the games you typed. in crysis warhead with all om max AA and max graphics (1680×1050) i get about 25fps. with no AA i get about 35-45fps….. and this rig is better.
that stuff there …
that stuff there will be a good beginning gaming rig but if you want to play high end games like, GRID, nfs Shift, GTA4, Crysis. You should get parts like:
AMD Phenom X4 9400 3.2 GHz
Any kind of good motherboard that fits with the CPU
ATI Radeon 4850 or 4870
Corsair 600 Watt PSU
3 GB Corsair XMS3 RAM 1600Mhz
