hi i am soon going to be building a new pc and i need to know if this is a good choice for playing all current games maxed and editing games or of there are better options here are the specs ive picked out at the moment

amd phenom 2 x4 965
xfx radeon hd 6950 2gb
kingston hyperx genesis 8gb 1600mhz ddr3 ram
asus m4a79xtd evo motherboard
zalman z11 case and i have the rest

and by the way is there any other motherboard that has 4 ddr3 channels with a unlocked multiplier cause i want to over clock but this one does not
 
Solution
this set up will play all games out and prob coming out for a while. if u not already got any of these parts i wood say turn to a i5 2500k and a Asus P8Z68-V PRO motherboard anymore than 4 cores is a waste and i5 2500k overclocks well
can you please fill out the how to ask for build advice template?

btw amd doesnt offer the best performing chips out there anymore so i would suggest getting a intel i3 or i5

for your question, you can play all the latest games with the specs so far but there are better solutions
