is this a good pc? (i already bought it)

i bought this pc from dell and was wondering if it is good enough for some of the newer games coming out. I hope i didnt shoot myself in the foot. It's an xps, but not the fully upgraded kind.

cpu: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6600 (2.4GHz,1066FSB) with 4MB cache

memory (ram): 4GB DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz

graphics card: 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GS

harddrive: 320GB Serial ATA 2 Hard Drive (7200RPM)

screen: Samsung LCD 29"

here's a picture:

i bought a gateway about a month ago that pretty much has the same specs on it except for the screen(mines is 22in) and a crappy graphics card since i plan to get a dx10 card soon, hope you have fun with itdahwnpapaya

Gateway makes good monitors from what I seen, yours prob has the intel GPU I see alot of gateways with those.

On the contrary, my monitor sucks, well it's good except sometimes it gets really frickn hot and gatewy customer support sucks, and also it came with a dead pixel.  As for the graphics card it's a 7300LE

its a Nice comp.

But i aggree with the others that you should have dropped the extra 2 gigs of ram and gotten a better GFX card. But its still a nice card but thats the only thing that is holding your comp back atm. As i can see you are a Guy with cash so when you first have bought a comp that has a high price then got for the full package.

If you have Vista, 4GB of ram is fine, because Vista recognizes up to 64GB of ram. Yes, even the 32Bit verion of Vista!  Since Vista use over 600MB just at idle, you did well in starting with 4GB. However, your memory speed is lacking, you should have gotten 1066Mhz ram instead.
