Don't do it! A gaming PC you say? That one was built very lopsided to be quite mediocre at gaming.

A GTX 460 is on OK GPU, but you're spending way too much for a 2600k that will go completely to waste for gaming, save $100 and get a 2500k. Then, 8 gigs of RAM... well, not bad, but not needed if you want to save cash. 2x2gb or 2x3gb is enough. You could also save some cash and get a 1TB HDD like a fast WD Black Caviar or a Samsung Spinpoint (F3 I think?).

I'd definitely recommend you try picking parts yourself and see if you can afford it. If you have a budget we can definitely help. I mean you can easily go with an AMD build too which does have an inferior CPU but on the other hand, is a lot cheaper and for gaming will be absolutely sufficient and allow you to get a good GPU to push those graphic settings like a 6950, or maybe SLI 560s.
