  Old  Building a new CPU

hi
i am building a new CPU. i am from bangladesh. so i there ain't much accessories available here. i aint' gonna buy a sound card now. i normally play games and do graphics works in Photoshop cs3.

here is what i plan to buy:

1.Processor: intel processor core 2 duo e6750 @ 2.66ghz - 1333mhz
2.Motherboard:Any mid range mobo which will support quad core(as i can upgrade to quad core after 2 and a half years later)
3.HDD- samsung-400gb
4.Powersupply -around 500-650W
5.RAM-samsung-2gb(as no other companies r available here)
6.PCI Express card- nvidia 8800 series one(not sure about the price as only seen this card in one shop here but will inquire about it soon again)
7.Sound card: open to suggestion but remember i want to play games like crysis on high and do Photoshop cs3 works. so suggest accordingly.not too expensive though.

Will appreciate all suggestions and feedbacks.also is this cpu good enough to play games for the next 2 years atleast?

thanks in advance.
regards.

Sadly if you want to play Crysis on high, you'll need a better spec than that.

You'll need at least an GTX or GT 8800 and maybe some more RAM. Also due to multi-core compatability, it may well be a good thing to go for quad core.

However, on that system you'll be able to play medium great and high with lots and lots of judders
