Can I play with this? HELP

[ProgamerIV]

This may be my new PC:
CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 @2800 mhz, 6-core
RAM: 8GB Kingston DDR3
Videocard: AMD Radeon HD 6970 1gb dx11
HDD: 500 GB 7200rpm
Display: 21" HD+ (Asus)

I have money for this. I would like to play the newest games in at least HD resolution
very high graphics, and I want to play with GTA V when is comes out with a good fps rate.
So what do you think, is it OK? Please tell me if I have to collect more money for it. And my second question: Should I buy an Intel core i5-2500 instead of the AMD Phenom II X6?
I will use it only for gaming. Thank you.

Yes i5! Its currently the best CPU for gaming, the GPU is great as well, make sure the RAM is 1.5V DDR3 1600, and get a good PSU.

I'd get the 560 Ti saving $100

Guru3D uses the following games in their test suite, COD-MW, Bad Company 2, Dirt 2, Far Cry 2, Metro 2033, Dawn of Discovery, Crysis Warhead. Total fps (summing fps in each game @ 1920 x 1200) for the various options in parenthesis (single card / SL or CF) are tabulated below along with their cost in dollars per frame single card - CF or SLI:

$ 320.00 6970 (526/825) $ 0.61 - $ 0.78
$ 215.00 560 Ti - 900 Mhz (495/862) $ 0.43 - $ 0.50

Invest in a bigger screen.....maybe one at 120 HZ
