for a new build go with a core2duo setup the intels are kicking arse right now. ask in the offical building thread for the best deals and some good advice.
that system would handle games just fine. It has higher specs then my gaming system (listed below) and mine will play any game out there right now flawless. But it also cost me only about $11000 USD (826 euro). and can be upgraded with 2GB more ram, better graphics, it is quad-core compatible as well and has crossfire to run dual graphics cards, and raid for hard drives.
