Ok my first post here, this place seems really good with all the knowledge you guys have and i was wondering if you could give me some advice on this build for a low end gaming pc. I allready have a hard drive with windows XP installed and dont want a new hard drive either :D.

i plan to play things like skyrim, mw3, black ops 2, some MMO's maybe, The Elder Scrolls Online when it comes, game like them really and i expect to play them on high on 1024 - 768 resolution, thank you for any advice you can give me :D.

That would have been a good build two years ago but not now - the 5850 is old and outdated, and the Phenom II 965 is based on such aging architecture that it's hard to recommend it. What's your budget? Knowing that will help to suggest a far more current system.
