I would, but sadly, Corsair has my RAM :( I'm typing this on my Sony VAIO, but if you send me a friends request on this site I'll add you once I get my RAM back.
i'ld have gone with a Q6600 (i think it's the same price as the E6850), a 8800gts, 2gb cheap pc26400 RAM, P35 motherboard (the one in my sig is brilliant ass it supports DDR3 and DDR2), 320gb HDD (they're cheap so why not?), an OCZ PSU (cheap, 600W and good ampages) and a bigger case that one might be OK for the moment but i'ld want to keep my case for as long as possible (graphics cards keep getting better).
Not sure if the 8900s will be released, they might aswell skip to the G92 which comes out at the end of this year.
You might get 200FPS but it won't matter as your screen refresh rate is probably onle 60-75 hertz, so you won't see the performance
