No, get the 8800GTS and a C2D(the 6600)... this way you will have a proper futuristic PC

so it wudnt work or u dont tink i shud get the 7950 cuz im hjst tryin to save money.
nd wot wud happen if i got the 8800 nd the rest but didnt get the C2D??

The 7950 would work, but it's pretty important that your CPU is generally up to date. The C2D offers so much more than a Pentium D, and you'll see a HUGE difference if you got that.

If you dont have the money for both the 8800 and the C2D I'd personally get the C2D and then wait for the 8800 when you've got enough money. The 7950 can handle current games pretty well.

Do you mean without the C2D? If so, ofcourse you can use the 8800 with your current Pentium D.

My issue is with the ATA 100 HDD you picked.  You should get one that is SATA II, for faster loading times, since the mobo you picked out is compatible with it.  Plus it's got a 16 MB cache instead of 8MB.

Check this one out:

I have always trusted Western Digital with my data and have never been disappointed.
