its pretty good, idk what he would think is "crap" in that setup maybe the PSU, and the ram but thats not even THAT bad.
Get this PSU instead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16817148025 Use the money to get this processor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16819115004
for the price of the ram you picked out you can get DDR2 800 ram for the same price http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList....e=2GB+(2+x+1GB)
Changed Power Supply and Ram Everything else good? I would change the Processor but I don't want to spend to much. Plan on going SLI later on.
