ya, probably not a bad idea. although honestly im a little shocked your not 
going a little bigger 512 ram is like the minimum these days, and pentium 
is actually where its at right now with their 800mhz FSB chips. you'd spend 
a little more of course but what you just listed off is a middle of the 
road machine right now, when those games come out it'll be min requirments 
or lower probably. and you know how that works
