It looks ok from first glance. To be honest, I agree with Zep, but with a few other issues. Chances are you're gonna have Vista 64 bit as your operating system. With 3072 mb of ram, you'll probably have at most, 2048 of it, since vista doesn't share memory well. That should be enough, depending on how much memory pirates will take up.

Again, the video card does not get high marks from me. Shared memory means exactly that.
