This will be my first gaming pc build because the pc I have right now isn't doing it for me. I have an old Pentuim 4 cpu, Radeon 9250 256mb gpu, and 1 gb of DDR2 ram in this thing that I'm using right now. Gets about 10-25 fps in SWBF2 mid settings. Won't even run Battlefield 2.
I'd like some assistance from some pros to check if all this is compatible in case I missed something.

Will I be able to play in/or close to max/ultra settings for the next 2-3 years at least? Multitask too? (e.g. watch HD videos on youtube, listen to music, many tabs open, etc) I'm not so sure about the case though. I like how it's quieter than the others but what about air flow? Also, would it be big enough for all this stuff?
Thanks.
