8800GT = great for gaming. Add in the E6850 and 2 gig of RAm and you should be good to go.

Definitely be a waste if you only surf the net, though.
 
8800gt is an awesome choice. However couldnt you get a Q6600 for around the same price? Just seems if you could you should go Intel Quad. Either way the Dual Core one is very very fast too.
