uh...are you joking?

Dont sweat it! Your system is more than good enough you will have no problems with any games coming out with everything maxed out. And dual proc systems dont do anything for gaming.

It'll last you til 2006 when the next system MS OS comes out. The only piece of hardware you might want to change out in 2005 is the video card, but that's iffy.

In my opinion, a good system should have:

Processor which performs equivalent to a P4 3 GHz
1 GB of RAM

It looks like you have a solid system, friend. Money well spent if you don't intend to upgrade until 2006
