It will get you by at the moment, there are already games that call for 8GB and more will be coming, if planning for a year or more would look at a 16GB set

Depends on what you are doing whilst gaming. If you have most everything else closed whilst running those games, you should be fine. If you have a bunch of crap running or are one of those people who never closes anything and/or shuts down/restarts once every few weeks, you could run into issues.

Only the iTunes and Facebook will have much to do with system RAM. Browsers, especially those that have active content, can be massive memory hogs. The rest is more VRAM than anything else. Still, sounds like I nice set up.

Thanks all you guys for quickly answering my question !
I will go for 8GB at the moment.
Another question: Because this is a budget build and I hope it will be enough for about 2-3 years so that I am thinking about a G3258, will this CPU fit the purpose ?
