Good PC, Though if you could get Q8400 or Q9400 it would be even better..

Graphics card will need to be updated D:

Graphic cards are always update-able

updating your proccesor will be harder because your motherboard needs to be in the ability of using it, my motherboard can only have 5 different processors but luckily i got a good one.

I know, but if I upgrade my graphics card, can my processor handle that?

Just had a quick look at those specs they would be just about good enough for my needs.

What are you planning on using the computer for mainly ?

Oh that 300w power supply is kinda weak too

You will need atleast 500w for what you are doing.

[ElMartu]

I don't know much about computers either but I'm sure you'd want to aim for a 1gb memory in the video card

Add 50W for the result and you'll be fine with PSU like it.
