Pro's: Not bad.. simple gaming computer.
Con's: Could of came here and did a better job asking because LGA 775 chipset has hit it's stopping point a while back.
DDR3 wasn't needed at all, no difference in ddr3/ddr2 unless you are going AM3 or i7.
With what you bought, you could have gotten an am3 or an am2+ then upgraded to an AM3.
Hopefully the HDD doesnt Brick on you from Firmware problems.
