New PC gamer - online games advice

Hi Everyone

I have just bought myself a new PC for gaming. I am new to PC gaming and I don't know which games are best for online gameplay. I have listed my spec below, please let me know which games I should get.

Just to let you know I have already got Gears of War and UT3.

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.66 GHz

Ram: 4GB Corsair Dominator TwinX DDR2

HDD: 1x 300GB & 1x 500GB

Graphics card: 1GB XFX GTX 280

OS: Windows XP

Getting the orange box would be a great start,contents mentioned above,TF2 is a very good multiplayer game to try if you don't play multiplayer alot,very user friendly and funh.Next get the

counter strike source retail box for $20-$30

you get CS:S(no duh),Day of Defeat:Source(one of my favorites), and Half-life2 deathmatch, which I never enjoyed but many others do

Thanks everyone.

As soon as I pick up my PC tomorrow I'm gonna go and get some of these. I already have the console version of The Orange Box, but people have still told me to buy it on PC as it is soooooo much better.

Cheers people.

I'd say get BF2, but it's kind of old. 2142 isn't nearly as good as BF2, so I wouldn't recommend that.

Really, PC online gaming isn't any more fun than console online gaming right now. Unless you like MMO's.
