I'm still not sure when I will be able to buy this, but I'm looking to get a good gaming pc that will be able to play all games like crysis, star wars:old republic, far cry 2, dragon age, etc. I don't want to have to spend too much money, just focus on the essentials and upgrade parts later on, so please take a look at what I have and let me know what you think.

I would go to a nvida 295 card personally, unless you have heat/noise concerns. I have heard the Zalman fans can be rather loud. Overall, not bad for the price.
